Steps:
- Thinly slice the shallots. In a small container, stir together the sour cream, white vinegar, dried dill, grated garlic clove, kosher salt, and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, thinly slice cucumbers and place them in a colander (if using standard cucumber, peel them first; English cucumbers don't need to be peeled). Toss the slices with several larger pinches of kosher salt and rest 45 minutes. Remove them from the colander and pat them dry.
- When ready to serve, gently stir together the cucumbers and dressing (don't stir too vigorously or it will cause bubbles). Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 hours; it gets watery if you refrigerate for too long with the sauce. If you'd like to prepare it in advance, refrigerate the components separately until serving.

Steps:
- For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
- Whisk together the cake flour, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk together the buttermilk, coffee, oil, eggs and vanilla in a separate bowl.
- Pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and beat on low speed just until combined. Scrape down the bowl then add the remaining wet ingredients and beat to combine. Scrape down the bowl and paddle. Increase the speed to medium and beat for a full minute.
- Fill the prepared cupcake tins 2/3 of the way full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of each comes out clean and the top springs back when lightly pressed, 15 to 18 minutes.
- For the frosting: Melt the chocolate in a medium heatproof bowl set over simmering water in a medium saucepan. Remove from the simmering water and let it cool until room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Beat the butter and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low, drizzle in the melted chocolate and beat until completely blended. Gradually beat in the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla. Increase the speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Decoratively pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes.
COOL CUKES
This is my version of the pickled vegetables they serve at Vietnamese restaurants. I have eliminated the sugar by using Splenda. This is a very refreshing and bright tasting side dish. It goes very well with rice based dishes or grilled meats. FYI - You can buy already prepared matchstick carrots in the grocery store.

- Smashed Cucumber Salad. With a tahini-lime dressing and drizzle of chile oil, this is one of those cucumber recipes that would pair nicely with a range of dishes.
- Chile-Cucumber Agua Fresca. Pair this cocktail—punchy from sharp lemon juice and a little habanero heat—with salty snacks. And if you're having it after hours, feel free to add a splash of your favorite Mexican spirit.
- Cucumber and Cilantro Chutney Sandwich. This is not your basic cream cheese and cucumber sandwich. This one also boasts a tangy chutney, made from cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil.
- Ultimate Zoodles. The zoodle trend is over, you say? They're so satisfying, we don't care. If you don't have a spiralizer, just cut zucchini and cucumbers into thin matchsticks.
- Smashed Cucumber and Melon Salad. This sweet and savory cucumber salad recipe is inspired by pai huang gau, Chinese spicy smashed cucumbers. Smashing Persian cucumbers is an easy way to deseed them, and it also gives them craggy edges ideal for catching the rice vinegar and sesame oil dressing.
