Sweetest Cake Decorating Recipe Ideas
For the buttercream, beat the butter until fluffy, stir in half of the icing sugar (be careful not to get it everywhere!) and then alternately stir in the lemon juice, the milk and the rest of the icing sugar. This produces quite a lot of buttercream, but my kids just lick the buttercream off the cupcakes, so I'm always happy to make extra so they can decorate them again afterwards. Squirt the buttercream with a piping bag or spread it on top of the cupcakes with a knife. They were gone by lunchtime, with lots of requests for more. Even someone who actually isn't fond of lemon ate two of these very moreish muffins! It's easy to follow, the cupcakes are light & fluffy and the buttercream frosting is yummy! Easy to make, light, moist and delicious. I added a little more lemon zest as I like lemony zing, and I took the batch ofThis is one of my favourite cupcakes to bake and my absolute favourite to eat! It’s the perfect cupcake and they are lovely to enjoy in the springtime sunshine. An easy yummy cupcake. Light and fluffy with a fresh twist.
Combine yogurt with orange zest and juice in a small bowl and stir until smooth; gradually whisk into the egg mixture along with oil. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients in 2 additions, stirring well in between until just blended. Fold in 1 cup of the walnuts. Spread the batter into the prepared pan. Bake the cake until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few moist crumbs attached, 35 to 45 minutes. To prepare syrup: Meanwhile, combine 1/3 cup orange juice, 1/4 cup brown sugar, orange zest strip and cloves in a small heavy saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring a few times. Adjust heat to maintain a simmer and cook until thickened, 4 to 5 minutes (you will have a scant 1/3 cup); remove the zest and cloves. When the cake is done, transfer the pan to a wire rack. Using a toothpick, pierce the top in about 18 places and brush the syrup over the cake 3 or 4 times, allowing it to seep in each time.
So not only is this recipe easy to remember, the cake is also easy to make. We are using regular all purpose flour (plain flour) but if you want a more tender and delicate crumb you can substitute the all purpose flour with cake flour. Also, if you want a cake with a lighter texture you can separate the eggs and beat the egg whites separately until soft peaks form. Fold the beaten egg whites into the batter after you have added the flour and milk. You can use either full fat (whole) milk or reduced fat (2%). Full fat milk will give this cake a richer flavor. Once the cake layers have been baked and completely cooled, we are going to frost the cake with a classic sweet and buttery Confectioners' Frosting, also known as Vanilla Frosting, Butter Frosting, or Buttercream. It is not what you would call a real buttercream, that is, one that is made with eggs and a sugar syrup. Prepare topping first: Place 1/4 cup of melted butter into a 9-inch pie dish or 9x2 inch (deep dish) round cake pan. Make sure it is a deep pan. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup of brown sugar. Top with pineapple slices and arrange cherries between the pineapple slices. See my photo for a visual. Prepare the cake: In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave. Whisk in the sugars vigorously getting out any brown sugar lumps - mixture will be gritty. Whisk in egg, yogurt, milk, pineapple juice, and vanilla extract until combined. Slowly mix in dry ingredients until no lumps remain. Batter will be thick. Pour/spoon batter into prepared pan. Make sure it's not overflowing-- this recipe makes enough batter for your deep dish pan. If you find there is too much batter, make a couple cupcakes (20 minutes bake time) on the side. Bake for at 40-48 minutes. Cover loosely with aluminum foil (loosely to avoid the top from sticking to the foil) at the 20 minute mark to avoid browning. Allow to cool for 10 minutes.
There's no excuse for a generic cupcake when there are so many flavor and icing combinations to make your cupcake rise above the ordinary. While classics like chocolate and vanilla never go out of style, you can nonetheless borrow elements from your favorite foods and cuisines and incorporate them into your cupcakes for a new and revelatory taste experience. Add this to my Recipe Box. A distinctly adult take on the child-friendly cupcake, wine cupcakes can be a fun way to lighten up a cocktail party. Any number of variations can address this theme, playing on the citrus or fruit notes that are already present in the wine. A grapefruit chardonnay cupcake builds from a base of chardonnay-infused cake, and is filled with grapefruit curd and topped with grapefruit chardonnay frosting spritzed with grapefruit juice. A red wine cupcake might combine Pinot Noir-laced cocoa cake with a caramel filling, reinforced with a caramel cream cheese frosting. These sweet little cakes have a crisp outside, a soft, slightly crumbly inside and are to die for. I completely fell in love with Welsh cakes after Jim gave me my first taste of one in Pontypridd market. The Welsh cooks of old did a lot of cooking on bakestones, which are essentially round cast iron skillets. They'd place them over a fire in their home, and use them for things like these sweet little cakes, which have a crisp outside and a soft, slightly crumbly inside that is to die for. You can replicate that bakestone style of cooking using a heavy-bottomed non-stick pan. I love serving these warm as they are or filled with a spoonful of cream and a few berries. Jim was using chunks of chocolate, different dried fruits and even sprinkles of desiccated coconut, so feel free to experiment once you've mastered the basic recipe.
