    • 4. Make the ganache:

    • Heat heavy cream until just boiling, then pour it over chopped semi-sweet chocolate.
    • Let sit for 1-2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
    • Let the ganache cool slightly, then spoon or drizzle it over the top of each filled cupcake.

    5. Chill and serve:

    • Refrigerate the cupcakes for at least 30 minutes to allow the ganache to set and the flavors to meld.
    • Serve chilled or at room temperature for the perfect texture.

    Pro Tips

    • Don’t overfill: Leave a little room at the top of the cupcake hole so the ganache sits neatly on top.
    • Use a piping bag: For a cleaner look, pipe the pastry cream into the cupcakes.
    • Chill thoroughly: The custard needs time to firm up, so don’t skip the chilling step.
    • Decorate if desired: A sprinkle of powdered sugar or a curl of chocolate on top adds a touch of elegance.
