Merry Christmas, my dears!
I hope you're enjoying the holidays! :)
In Germany we already received our presents and now I want to share some more Christmas cupcakes with you.
Apparently, it doesn't snow so there is no white Christmas this year.
These are really festive cupcakes and they don't taste too rich, so you can even serve them after diner! (This is not my 'special' but it will come soon)
What you need for the dough to make about 16-20 cupcakes:
1,5cups spelt flour
75g dark chocolate
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1 teaspoon mixed christmas spice
pinch of salt
1/8cup instant coffe
1/2cup boiling water
100g butter
3/4cup dark sugar
2 eggs
3-4 tablespoons sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Place the chocolate, the coffee and the water in a small sauce pan which swims in another sauce pan filled with water. Stir continously until the chocolate has melted.
Then mix it all together and bake for 15minutes on 200°C. It will rise a lot!
For the icing you need:
1 egg white
180-200g icing sugar
Just mix it together and then cover the cooled cupcakes with to layers. After that you can sprinkle it with silver balls and paint some silver pearl dust on top after the icing has dried.
I decided to make some baked apples with nuts, honey and cinnamon for tomorrow. It's not a cake but you bake it so I'll post it ^.^
With best regards,
Francine
