Time 1h

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups cake flour (see Cook's Note)
3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder (see Cook's Note)
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
3/4 cup warm coffee
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 ounces semisweet chocolate chips or semisweet chocolate (64-percent cacao), chopped
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla paste or extract

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Whisk together the cake flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk together the buttermilk, coffee, oil, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl.
  • Pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and beat on low speed just until combined. Scrape down the bowl then add the remaining wet ingredients and beat to combine. Scrape down the bowl and paddle. Increase the speed to medium and beat for a full minute.
  • Fill the prepared cupcake tins 2/3 of the way full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of each comes out clean and the top springs back when lightly pressed, 15 to 18 minutes.
  • For the frosting: Melt the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over simmering water in a medium saucepan. Remove from the simmering water and let it cool until room temperature, about 30 minutes.
  • Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, drizzle in the melted chocolate and beat until completely blended. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla. Increase the speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Transfer the frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Decoratively pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes.

Provided by Kyle Richmond

Categories     Desserts

Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup all purpose flour
⅓ cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon tamarind paste
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
⅓ cup dark chocolate, chopped
4 egg whites
¾ cup sugar
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar, (or xanthan gum), optional
dark chocolate, for grating
cinnamon stick, for grating
Red and green sprinkle

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Begin by making your cupcakes. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt to evenly combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, oil, buttermilk, tamarind, and vanilla extract to evenly combine. Then, add the dry ingredients to the wet bowl and whisk just until the mixture comes together evenly. Fold in the chopped chocolate, then divide the mixture evenly amongst 12 paper-lined muffin tins. Place the filled baking cups into muffin tins or onto a sheet tray, then place in the oven to bake for 19 - 21 minutes, or until a sharp knife comes out clean when testing the cupcake. Remove cooked cupcakes and allow them to cool completely.
  • While the cupcakes cool, make your meringue. In a heatproof bowl, whisk the egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar together evenly. Place the bowl over a pot of gently simmering water and whisk well for 2 minutes to fully dissolve the sugar into the mixture. Remove from the heat then start to whip the egg white mixture. Using a hand mixer (or transfer to a stand mixer with the whisk attachment) whisk the egg white mixture on high for 9 - 10 minutes, or until glossy and stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped meringue to a piping bag fitted with your choice of shaped tip. When the cupcakes have cooled, begin piping your cupcakes. Garnish with extra shaved chocolate on top, freshly grated cinnamon, and some red or green sprinkles. Enjoy!
