Ingredients:
- for cupcakes: 3/4 cup flour (about 3.25 oz)
- pinch of salt
- 3.5 oz chocolate, chopped (i use callebaut bittersweet, but you can use whatever chocolate you prefer, although i do recommend staying away from milk chocolate)
- 4 eggs
- for mascarpone frosting: 12 oz mascarpone cheese
Directions:
- Preheat oven at 350.
- Line with cupcake foils or grease 2 regular-size muffin pans.
- Chop cherries and transfer to a small bowl. If using brandy, cover cherries in brandy and set aside to plump.
- In a medium sized bowl, sift/mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Melt chocolate & butter over a double boiler; stir in sugar; let cool for 7-10 minutes. Transfer to mixer and beat for about 2 minutes.
- Add eggs, one at a time, mixing for about 30 seconds after each addition.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, & salt into the mixture & mix until blended. Drain cherries & fold into batter.
- Scoop batter into muffin tins and bake for about 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
- For Frosting: In a large bowl, beat the mascarpone cheese, heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks start to form (*Do not overbeat or mixture will curdle).
- Frost cupcakes.
