Instructions:
To make the cupcakes:
- Combine together all dry ingredients (cocoa powder, flour, sugar, baking powder, butter, and salt). Mix together to get a nice batter with breadcrumb consistency.
- In another bowl, combine together the egg, milk, and prepared coffee, and then apply this to the dry batter and mix to incorporate.
- Spoon one tablespoon of the cake mixture into every cupcake case, apply an Oreo to each one, and top with another tablespoon of the mixture. Place in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. When ready, remove from the tin immediately and let cool entirely on a cooling rack. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting.
To make the frosting:
- In a heatproof bowl, add the chocolate and heat the heavy cream on a low-medium heat until it begins to boil and immediately pour over the chocolate.
- Let them for a few minutes to sit, before combining together.
- Let the ganache completely cool and slightly thicken before beating on a medium-high speed for around 5 minutes. Put the ganache into a piping back and pipe onto the cupcakes. Allow the frosting to cool on the cupcakes before decorating.
- Finally, garnish each top with 1 Oreo cookie and/or sprinkle a few coffee beans, if desired. Serve.
Enjoy!
