Muffins with Ganache

Ingredients

Wheat Flour - 1 cup
Cocoa Powder - ½ cup
Baking Powder - 0.4 oz
Salt - ½ teaspoon
Sugar - 2 cups
Butter - 3.2 oz
Chicken Egg - 1 piece
Boiling water - ½ cup
Egg white - 2 pieces
70% Dark Chocolate - 7.1 oz
Vanillin - 1 teaspoon
10% cream - ½ cup

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Line the muffin tin with cupcake liners. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Beat the butter with 1 cup of sugar, add the egg, and mix well. Add the vanillin, half of the dry mixture, hot water, and the remaining dry mixture, mixing after each addition. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to cool and thicken, then add the chocolate (1 cup). Pour the batter into the molds and bake for about 22–25 minutes. Check for doneness with a wooden toothpick. Cool in the molds.

Step 2

Make the ganache. Bring the cream to a boil, add the chocolate (1 cup), and stir until smooth. Allow to cool completely.

Step 3

Make the cream. Using a hand mixer, combine ⅓ cup of water, 1 cup of sugar, egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt. Place the bowl with the cream over a pot of gently simmering water (this is a water bath) and whip until fluffy, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and continue to whip for about 2 minutes until the cream cools. Use a spoon to create a well in each cupcake and fill it with ganache. Top with cream.
