These chocolate cupcakes are rich and moist, topped with a simple chocolate ganache and a light vanilla whipped cream. The recipe starts with a quick batter, bakes in about twenty minutes, and then gets two layers of topping. The ganache adds a deep chocolate note, while the whipped cream keeps things airy and bright. They're a good choice when you want a lighter frosting than traditional buttercream.
