Instructions
- For the Cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Line a standard cupcake tin with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, place the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until combined.
- In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, add the melted butter.
- With the mixer on low, gradually add the sugar. Mix until thoroughly combined (about 2 to 3 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time. Mixing until just combined.
- Add the vanilla and mix.
- In a measuring cup, place the milk and lemon juice (or vinegar).
- Add the flour mixture and milk mixture in 3 separate steps, starting and ending with the flour mixture.
- Fill each cupcake liner only about 1/2 full. We want the cupcakes to be flat when they are baked.
- Bake for about 14 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs attached to it.
- Remove the cupcake pan from the oven, and allow the cupcakes to cool for about 10 minutes in the pan. Remove the cupcakes and allow them to cool completely on a drying rack.
- While the cupcakes cool, make the frosting.
- For each frosting flavor, use the following method: In the bowl of mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the salt, flavorings, and cream/milk.
- Place the chocolate and strawberry frosting flavors in separate bowls. Smooth the top and cover with plastic wrap. Chill until firm.
- For the vanilla, keep about 1/2 of the frosting at room temperature, and chill the rest.
- While the frosting chills, make the ganache.
- Warm the cream until just about to boil.
- Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate. Let it stand for a minute or two.
- Mix the chocolate and cream until smooth and shiny.
- To assemble the cupcakes, put a thing layer of vanilla frosting over the top of each cupcake.
- Using a small ice cream scooper, place a single scoop of each flavor frosting on the top of each cupcake.
- Drizzle the scoops with ganache.
- Place a cherry on top.
