Ingredients

 

1x2x3x

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups sugar, I used raw sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2/3 cup almond milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp. almond extract
• 1 1/2 cups strawberries, diced (plus several strawberries for garnish)
• 8 ounces heavy whipping cream
• 6 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Instructions

 

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Line muffin tins with paper cups.
• Cream together butter and sugar, then add the eggs, mixing until smooth. Add almond milk, vanilla, and almond extract, mixing to combine.
• Add dry ingredients and mix until combined. Stir in the chopped strawberries.
• Pour batter into muffin papers, and bake 16-18 minutes. Allow muffins to cool.
• Meanwhile, heat cream in a small saucepan over medium-high. Once the cream starts to lightly bubble, remove it from heat and stir in the chocolate, allowing it to melt. Whisk until smooth.
• Spread the ganache on the cupcakes and allow to sit. Garnish with 1/2 of a strawberry. Serve!
