Easy Cupcake Recipe

Easy cupcake recipe: I am sure you will soon begin to create your own cupcake recipes. Start with this easy one and soon you will be creating your own so easy it is!

You'll need (12 cupcakes): • 3 tablespoons of soft butter (keep it out of the fridge for a couple of hours before using it) • 6 tablespoons of sugar • 2 eggs • 1 cup of wheat flour • 1 teaspoon of baking powder

• 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract or a small bag of vanilla flavour

• 3 to 4 tablespoons of milk

• 12 cupcakes baking cups

• 1 white chocolate bar (about a cup)

• chocolate chips

• 12 candied cherries

How to prepare it:

Turn on the oven to 180°C/356°F.

 

Put the sugar together with the soft butter and mix it with a wood spoon or using a mixer in low speed. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing carefully with the wood spoon. Add the flour (I prefer to use a flour sifter, but it is not mandatory) and the baking powder, the vanilla and the milk. Mix it all well, but not worrying too much if it is not perfectly homogeneous. Pour the mix inside the baking cups and put them into the oven. They should take about 15 minutes to be ready. Control the cupcakes from the oven window and they should be done when they become a little coloured at the surface and the center goes up like a volcano.

If you use the silicone baking cups as I do,just take the cupcakes out of them and place them on a grate to cold.

To decorate this easy cupcake recipe, I use melted white chocolate and some chocolate chips.

Just put the white chocolate into a small iron or alluminium bowl and place it on another pan with some water inside. Put it on the gas and melt the chocolate.

You can use the microwave oven if you prefer

Take each cupcake and pass its surface on the melted white chocolate and put them again on the grate. Add the chocolate chips and place the candied cherry on the top.

tip: before passing each cupcake into the chocolate, cut their tops to better place the cherry.
