Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 C. In a bowl, stir together the butter and cocoa powder, then stir in the sugar. Add the cream cheese and beat in. Beat in the egg, then stir in the vanilla extract. Add the flour, baking powder, and baking soda and stir together. Stir in the milk. Spoon the mixture into the paper liners and bake in the preheated oven for about 16 minutes until risen and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.


To decorate, put the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water. Do not let the bowl touch the water. Leave until almost melted. Remove from the heat and let cool for about 10 minutes. Beat together the melted chocolate, cream cheese, sugar and vanilla extract until creamy, then spread the frosting on top of the cupcakes. Using a vegetable peeler, make chocolate shavings and scatter on top of the cupcakes.
