📖 Recipe
Chocolate Cupcakes with Buttercream Icing Recipe
Ingredients
For the Choco cupcakes
- 150 g butter
- 150 g caster sugar
- 175 g self-raising flour
- 25 g cocoa powder
- 3 eggs
For the Buttercream topping
- 250 g butter
- 500 g icing sugar sifted
- 2 teaspoon milk
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Lay out 12 cupcake cases on a baking tray.
- Beat the eggs with a fork in a separate bowl. Mix the butter, sugar, flour and cocoa powder in a bowl. Using an electric mixer, add the beaten eggs slowly into the bowl as you are mixing.
- Using a large spoon place equal amounts of mixture into the 12 cupcake cases. Put the cupcakes into the oven (near the top) and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Check on them after 15 minutes, they should be firm to touch. (You can also test by popping a skewer into the middle of the cupcake, it should come out clean). If not ready, leave them in for a further five minutes. Remove from the oven and leave to cool.
- While the cupcakes are cooling, make the buttercream topping. Place the butter into a bowl and stir in the icing sugar and vanilla extract using a wooden spoon. Then whisk (again using an electric mixer) until fluffy and lighter in colour.
- Add two teaspoons of milk and whisk again. If the mixture is still too stiff add a little more milk.
- Once the cakes have cooled completely, put the buttercream mixture into a piping bag with a large star nozzle and squeeze plenty of buttercream onto each cupcake.
- Sprinkle candy toppings to the buttercream.
