Truffle Chocolate Cupcakes image

I love food served with an unexpected twist, like these cupcakes with a creamy chocolate truffle center. My kids love to "help" make them, but I have to be sure to have enough truffles saved to actually fill the cupcakes! -Amanda Noll, Spanaway, Washington

Not a fan of the ganache frosting, but the cupcakes themselves were moist and flavorful.
