Thanks to Munira's recipes.

CUPCAKES
Ingredients:
2 cups/240g cake flour 
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
¾ cup/90g cocoa powder
1 tsp salt
2 cups sugar/400g ( reduced to 300g)
1 cup/240ml hot coffee (1 teaspoon coffee granules eg nescafe + 240ml of hot water)
1 cup/240ml canola oil
1 cup buttermilk/240ml (I use vinegar 1 tbsp + full cream milk)
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla

Method:
Preheat oven to 165°
In a large bowl whisk together dry ingredients.
Add coffee, oil and buttermilk and mix until combined.
Add eggs and vanilla and mix for another 2 minutes.
Pour batter into two greased and floured 9-inch round baking pans.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Let cool in pans until warm and then remove from pans and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.


WHIPPED CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Ingredients:
240ml Rich Bettercreme (Non-dairy Whipped Topping)
70g Cream Cheese, softened
1/4 cup Icing Sugar
A few drops of Vanilla Extract

Method:
Combine cream cheese, vanilla and icing sugar together until smooth.
In a separate bowl, I whip the cream until thick, add the cream cheese mixture and continue to whip until stiff. Can be used immediately to pipe over cupcakes or layer and frost cakes.

Note: This frosting last for long hours at room temperature and doesn't melt.

EASY DARK CHOCOLATE GANACHE
Ingredients:
200g Dark Chocolate Compound (coins/droplets)
170g can of Nestlé Cream, room temperature.
Method:
Melt chocolate in the microwave for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir in the cream straight out of the can. Stir until well combined. No whipping needed. Then leave to set for 1 - 2 hours on the counter. Alternatively, if in a rush, pop it in the fridge and stir every 15 mins until achieve piping consistency. Ready to use to use as filling or to frost cakes or cupcakes.
