Recipe Summary Strawberry-Chocolate Mini Cupcakes With White Chocolate Ganache
I made these for Valentine's Day 2010, during the school week and on a sprained ankle! SUPER easy to do, and delicious! I drew from different recipes all over the net, but changed things up to make them all my own.Ingredients | Strawberry And White Chocolate Muffins Thermomix2 cups all-purpose flour¼ teaspoon baking soda1 tablespoon baking powder1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder5 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder1 (0.13 ounce) package unsweetened strawberry-flavored drink mix¼ teaspoon salt5 tablespoons butter2 ½ cups white sugar4 eggs2 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract, or to taste1 ¾ cups milk¼ cup heavy cream2 cups heavy cream2 (0.13 ounce) packages unsweetened strawberry-flavored drink mix36 ounces white chocolate, choppedDirectionsPreheat an oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line the cups of four 24-cup mini cupcake pans with paper liners. Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, all the cocoa powder, 1 package of strawberry drink mix, and salt in a mixing bowl.In a separate bowl, beat butter and white sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy; beat the eggs in, one at a time, adding each egg after the previous one has been completely incorporated. Beat in vanilla extract; mix in the flour-cocoa mixture in 4 additions, alternating each time with milk. Reduce mixer speed to low, and beat in the cream. Fill the cupcake cups 1/2 to 3/4 full.Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove to racks, and allow the cupcakes to cool.Bring 2 cups of cream almost to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat; dissolve the 2 packets of strawberry drink mix into the cream. Stir in the white chocolate until the chunks melt and the mixture becomes melted, smooth, and shiny. Set aside and allow ganache to cool to warm temperature (about 95 degrees F/ 35 degrees C). Frost each cupcake with ganache.For a sweeter cupcake, add up to 1/2 cup more white sugar to the batter.Info | Strawberry And White Chocolate Muffins Thermomixprep: 30 mins cook: 20 mins additional: 30 mins total: 1 hr 20 mins Servings: 48 Yield: 96 mini cupcakes
