- ½ cup avocado oil or coconut oil (or one stick of butter melted)
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee mixed with 2 tablespoons of hot water
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk of choice
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour or flour of choice (or 2 cups)
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips or chunks
Chocolate Ganache:
- 1 cup chocolate chips milk, or dark chocolate
- ¼ cup coconut cream from a can of full-fat coconut milk, do not use the liquid
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 F and prepare a muffin pan with 12 cupcake liners. Or you can make six jumbo.
- In a large bowl, add the 2 large eggs, ½ cup avocado oil, 2/3 cup brown sugar, 2 teaspoons instant coffee(mixed with hot water), and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. Pour in the 1 cup milk of choice and mix again. Set aside. Whisk well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, add the 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cocoa Powder, 1 teaspoon Baking Powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Mix to combine.
- Next, pour the liquid over the flour mixture. Or the flour over the liquid egg mixture. Using a spatula, mix well until a consistent batter is formed.
- Fold in the ½ cup dark chocolate chips/chunks. Pour the batter equally into a 12-lined muffin pan.
- Bake at 375 F for 22-25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean. Allow it to cool. While the cupcakes are baking, make the ganache.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 1 cup chocolate chips in 20-second increments or melt them over a pot of boiling water by constantly mixing until the chocolate is melted through.
- Add the ¼ cup coconut cream and mix to incorporate. If you need to melt this some more you can pop it in the microwave for another 10-15 seconds.
- Let it sit for a few minutes to cool and settle. Place the ganache in a Ziplock bag and cut the tip.
- Remove or pipe out a small section in the middle of each muffin, and add some of the ganache into each hole. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
- use any milk of your choice
- chocolate chips: can be dairy-free, milk, or dark chocolate
- any sugar will work
- Any oil works, too, or you can also use melted butter.
- In place of coconut cream, you can use heavy whipping cream.
- allow the muffins to cool before adding in the ganache.
