Method
- Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, both sugars, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Add the egg, milk, oil, and vanilla to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined.
- Slowly pour in the hot coffee, mixing until the batter is smooth and thin.
- Fill each liner about 2/3 full, then bake in the oven for 18–20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
- Meanwhile, beat the softened butter and cream cheese until fluffy, then add the dissolved coffee and mix well.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar until creamy and spreadable.
- Transfer the frosting to a piping bag and swirl it high on each cupcake.
- Drizzle with warm chocolate ganache and sprinkle with chocolate chips if desired.
