Method
Prepare the Cupcake Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the melted butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk. Mix well.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Fold in the blackberries gently.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners.
Bake the Cupcakes
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Ganache
- In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer.
- Remove from heat and add the dark chocolate chips. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir until smooth.
Assemble the Cupcakes
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, drizzle the chocolate ganache over the tops.
- Garnish with additional blackberries if desired.
