Process

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 160C and line a 12 capacity muffin tray with cupcake liners.

Step 2

Place caster sugar and butter in a bowl. Use electric beaters to cream the butter and sugar. Once the butter is light in colour add in the vanilla extra and eggs, one at a time.

Step 3

Sift in ¼ of the flour, baking soda, baking powder, cocoa and salt into the butter mixture. Alternate with the almond milk, stirring in-between until a thick mixture forms.

Step 4

Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin tray. Fill the cupcake liners till they are ¾ full.

Step 5

Bake in the oven for 15-20 mins or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.

Step 6

Meanwhile to make the ganache, melt the dark chocolate chips and use a fork to whisk in the almond milk. Cover and place in the fridge to cool down.

Step 7

Once cool, spoon it into a large mixing bowl and use electric beaters to whip it, aerating the ganache.

Step 8

Once the Chocolate muffins are completely cooled, top with ganache.
