Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 cup prepared vanilla custard or pudding
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- Alternately add the flour mixture and milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
- Divide batter evenly among cupcake liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
- Once cooled, use a small knife or cupcake corer to remove the center of each cupcake. Fill with vanilla custard.
- For the ganache, heat heavy cream until steaming. Pour over chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth.
- Spoon or pipe ganache over each cupcake, allowing it to drip slightly down the sides. Chill for 10 minutes to set.
