False Alarm of the Day:  In light of an explosion of news stories about cannibalism over the past week, the Centers for Disease Control have issued a statement reassuring us that zombies are not real, and we can go about our business without fear of a zombie apocalypse. People eating each other’s body parts due to the effects of synthetic drugs, on the other hand …
The CDC told the Huffington Post that “CDC does not know of a virus or condition that would reanimate the dead (or one that would present zombie-like symptoms).”
Well, that’s reassuring, coming from the same agency that has a detailed webpage about zombie apocalypse preparedness.
If anyone needs me, I’ll be in my bunker.

Triple Chocolate Cupcakes



Difficulty: ★★☆☆☆ (easy)



Ingredients:
Chocolate Sour Cream Cupcakes:
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup boiling water
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
Ganache:
4 oz semi-sweet chocolate, finely chopped
1/2 cup whipping cream, steaming hot
Chocolate Frosting:
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/3 cup whipping cream
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 pound confectioners sugar
Directions:
Sift flour, sugars, baking soda and salt through a fine-mesh sieve. Set aside.
Place chocolate, butter and cocoa into a large bowl. Pour boiling water over. Let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Whisk in vanilla, sour cream, buttermilk and eggs until well combined. Add dry ingredients, whisking until smooth.
Spoon 1/4 cup batter into regular-sized muffin tins prepared with cupcake liners (about 15). Bake at 350ºF for 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. Let cool 5 minutes before removing to cool on a wire rack. Cool completely before frosting.
To make ganache, place chocolate in a bowl. Pour cream over chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Let cool to room temperature.
To make frosting, place butter, cream and salt in the bowl of a mixer. Sift cocoa through a fine-mesh sieve set over the mixing bowl. Mix on medium-speed until creamy. Add vanilla. Sift confectioners sugar into mixing bowl through a fine-mesh sieve. Beat on low to combine; turn speed to medium and beat for 6 minutes until creamy and fluffy. Icing will be quite stiff.
To assemble, cut out a small cone in the centre of each cupcake. Discard scraps. Spoon ganache into each cupcake and spread a small amount over the top to smooth it out. Pipe on frosting in desired fashion. Drizzle with remaining ganache, heating up if necessary. Garnish with chopped chocolate.
