    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

    2

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cocoa powder.

    3

    In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

    4

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

    5

    Fold in the chopped dark chocolate, then fill the muffin liners about ¾ full with batter.

    6

    Bake the cupcakes for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    7

    While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the truffle frosting: Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped dark chocolate until smooth.

    8

    Let the truffle frosting cool until thickened, then whip in the powdered sugar and cream cheese until light and fluffy.

    9

    Let the cupcakes cool completely, then frost with the truffle frosting and dust with cocoa powder or garnish with chocolate shavings.
