  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions
 

For the cupcakes

  • Preheat your oven to 350F.
  • Combine dry ingredients up to sugar in a medium sized bowl. In another bowl, whisk together the butter, melted chocolate, egg, coffee, milk, and vanilla.
  • Now combine the wet with the dry by folding until just combined. Try to not over mix.
  • Fill your cupcake pan with liners (about 12) and bake for 12-15 minutes.

For the whipped ganache

  • In the microwave or using a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips with 1 cup heavy cream and vanilla.
  • Once combined and deliciously smooth, put in the fridge to firm up.
  • After about an hour or two, remove firmed chocolate ganache and spoon into your mixing bowl with a paddle attachment.
  • Whip until peaks form. About 5 minutes.
  • Fill piping bag with whichever tip you desire and go to town!
