Preparation
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, brown sugar, gingerbread spice, cocoa powder, and baking powder. In a saucepan, melt the butter and add the chocolate in pieces. Once the chocolate melts, add plum jam, milk, and finally the egg. Mix well and combine with the dry ingredients. Grease muffin tin with butter and dust with cocoa powder. Transfer the batter into a piping bag and pipe into muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full. Bake the cupcakes in an oven preheated to 180°C for 17-22 minutes. Once baked, let the cupcakes cool.
Step 2: Combine Ganache Ingredients
Pour cream into a saucepan and add honey and cinnamon. Bring to a boil. Then add crushed dark chocolate, followed by crushed milk chocolate. Stir until the chocolate melts. Remove from heat, add softened butter to the mixture, and mix well. Allow to cool to room temperature.
Step 3: Decorate the Cupcakes
Transfer the ganache into a piping bag with a decorative tip. Pipe the ganache onto the cooled cupcakes. Decorate the cupcakes with nuts.
