Chocolate Recipe
Makes about 24 mini cupcakes
Ingredients
¾ cup flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
½ tsp baking soda
¾ tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
2 eggs, room temperature
½ cup sugar
½ cup light brown sugar
1/3 cup canola oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup buttermilk, room temperature (or ½ cup milk + 1 tsp vinegar, let stand for 5 min before use)
½ tsp instant espresso powder (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, white sugar, brown sugar, canola oil, and vanilla extract.
4. Alternate adding wet ingredients and milk to dry mixture. Mix in espresso powder. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 of the way full, and bake for 16-17 minutes or until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
Buttercream Recipe
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
½ tsp peppermint extract
2-3 T milk
Directions:
Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add enough milk to reach desired consistency, and mix in peppermint extract.
Chocolate Ganache Recipe
Ingredients
8 oz semisweet chocolate
½ cup heavy cream
Directions:
Heat heavy cream until boiling (about 2 min in microwave). Pour over chocolate and let sit for 5 minutes to allow chocolate to melt. Mix until smooth (mixture will look grainy at first, but will eventually become smooth).
