Chocolate Truffle Cupcakes
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
6 1/2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted
2 cups self-rising flour
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup milk
12 hershey kisses
Preheat the oven to 400�F. Lightly grease a 12-cup capacity muffin
pan. Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the
eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the
chocolate, flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder alternately with
the milk. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pans and top each cake
with a chocolate button. Bake for 20 minutes, or until cooked and a
skewer inserted in the middle of one of the cakes comes out clean.
Turn the cupcakes out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Serve
warm or cool with freshly brewed coffee. |
