For the Filling & Coating

🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Batter

First, mix the flour, cocoa powder, and sugar in a bowl.
Next, add the milk, heavy cream, and eggs. Stir until the mixture becomes smooth.
Then incorporate the baking powder and mix gently until combined.

Place 10–12 paper liners in a muffin tin.
After that, distribute the batter evenly among the cups using a spoon.

3. Bake

Preheat your oven to high temperature.
Bake the muffins for about 30 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow them to cool slightly. Then carefully cut each muffin in half without breaking it.

4. Prepare the Ganache

Warm the heavy cream in the microwave for around 2 minutes.
Meanwhile, chop the chocolate into small pieces.
When the cream is hot, pour it over the chocolate.
Finally, mix until smooth and shiny.

5. Assemble

Fill each muffin with the chocolate ganache and place the top back on.
After that, use a spoon to cover the top of each muffin with more ganache.

6. Chill and Serve
