INGREDIENTS:
One cup of all-purpose flour
One teaspoon of baking powder
One-fourth teaspoon of salt
Half a cup of room-temperature unsalted butter
Two large eggs and half a cup of granulated sugar
One teaspoon of vanilla extract
Half a cup of milk
One cup of vanilla pudding
One cup of heavy cream
One cup of chocolate chips that are semi-sweet
INSTRUCTIONS:
Set a muffin tray with cupcake liners and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium-sized bowl. Put aside.
Beat the sugar and butter together in a big bowl until they are light and creamy. Beat thoroughly after adding each egg one at a time. Add vanilla extract and stir.
Start with the flour combination and finish with the milk, adding the flour mixture to the butter mixture alternately. Stir just until incorporated.
Evenly distribute the batter among the muffin liners. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean after 18 to 20 minutes of baking. Allow to cool fully.
Cut a tiny circle out of the middle of each cupcake after it has cooled, then fill it with vanilla pudding.
Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it barely starts to simmer. Take off the heat and add chocolate chips. Give it five minutes to sit, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Over each cupcake, spoon the chocolate ganache, letting it run down the edges. Before serving, allow the ganache to solidify.
20 minutes for preparation; 20 minutes for cooking; 40 minutes in total.
