Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely.
Once the cupcakes are cool, cut a small circle out of the center of each cupcake and fill with vanilla pudding.
In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over chocolate chips. Let sit for 5 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Spoon the chocolate ganache over each cupcake, allowing it to drip down the sides. Let the ganache set before serving.
Add an extra dollop of whipped cream on top of each cupcake for an added touch of creaminess.
