Add Eggs and Vanilla
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.

Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Stir until just combined to avoid overmixing.

Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a mini cupcake or muffin tray by greasing it or lining with mini cupcake liners.

Fill the Cups
Spoon the batter into the mini cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool and Fill
Once baked, allow the mini cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, use a small knife to cut a small hole in the top of each cupcake and fill with chocolate ganache.
