Ingredients

  • 1 box chocolate (or devils food) cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 C. melted butter, slightly cooled
  • 3/4 C. milk or buttermilk
  • 3/4 C. sour cream
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 C. chocolate chips (I used semi-sweet)
  • 1/3 C. heavy whipping cream
  • coarse salt for sprinkling
  • 1 C. butter, softened
  • 1/2 C. unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 Tbsp. milk (more as needed)
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 - 4 C. powdered sugar
  • NOTE: If you live in a hot place, you may want to decrease Ganache cream amount from 1/3 to 1/4 Cup.

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with cupcake liners.
  • 2. Sift cake mix into a small bowl and set aside.
  • 3. In a large bowl, combine eggs, butter, milk, sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • 4. Stir in cake mix.
  • 5. Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full and bake for 17-22 minute or until an inserted knife comes out clean.
  • 6. Let cool.
  • 7. Ganache: Use a double boiler to melt cream and chocolate together and stir until smooth. (You can also just microwave the two together, but make sure you use a bowl meant for microwaving, some bowls get scorching hot and that will burn you chocolate.)
  • 8. Dip the tops of your cupcakes in ganache, then sprinkle with a little coarse salt. I used my left over ganache to dip some pretzels I had on hand, put them on foil and popped them in the freezer to set.
  • 9. Buttercream: Beat butter for 2 minutes. Add cocoa powder, milk and vanilla extract and beat again. Slowly add in powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency. If it becomes too thick, add more milk.
  • 10. Once the ganache on the cupcakes have set (should only take about 10 minutes) pipe buttercream onto cupcakes and sprinkle a little coarse salt and top with a pretzel! Be careful to not put on too much salt!
