Serves 18

1 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour, plus more for tins


1 1/2 teaspoon(s) baking powder

1/2 teaspoon(s) salt

3 large eggs

1 cup(s) sugar

Directions:

1.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour standard muffin tins. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl. Warm milk and butter in a saucepan over low heat.

2.Beat eggs and sugar with a mixer on high speed until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Beat in dry ingredients.

3.Bring milk and butter to a boil. With mixer on low speed, add milk mixture to batter, and beat until smooth. Add vanilla. Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each halfway. Bake cupcakes until light gold, about 15 minutes. Let cool in tins for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks. Let cool.

4.Using a serrated knife, cut each in half horizontally. Spread 1 tablespoon Vanilla Cream on each cupcake bottom. Sandwich with top. Spoon Chocolate-Ganache Glaze over each, and serve immediately.
