Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt for about 30 seconds.
- In a separate large bowl, blend the sugars with the oil until smooth. Incorporate the eggs, coffee, milk, and vanilla extract, stirring gently until combined.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gradually until just moistened.
- Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 18–20 minutes. Allow to cool before transferring to a wire rack.
- In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and coffee granules until stiff peaks form.
- Core each cooled cupcake to create space for the filling and reserve the tops.
- Pipe the whipped coffee cream into each cupcake and reattach tops.
- Heat the heavy cream for the ganache and pour over chopped dark chocolate. Stir until smooth.
- Drizzle ganache over each cupcake and let set before serving.
