I want to share with you guys another one of my favourite cupcake recipes with cream cheese filling, perfect for upcoming Easter! (Any excuse ehy!)
Preheat the oven to 175 degree and line your cupcake tins, this recipe makes 18 cupcakes.
All you will need for the filling is:
- 6 ounces of cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons of icing sugar
- 1 egg
- half a cup of easter eggs, chopped up
Add the cream cheese, egg and icing sugar to your electric mixer, beat at medium speed until all combined. Stir in the chocolate after with a spatula.
To make the cupcakes, you will need:
-1 1/2 cups of all purpose of plain flour
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup of baking cocoa
- 1 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 cup of milk
- 1/3 cup of vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together, to that add the milk, vegetable oil and vanilla.
Fill the cupcake tins half full with the cupcake mixture.
Add a dollop of the cream cheese filling to the middle of the cupcake tins.
Put them in the oven for 25-30 minutes.
To make the frosting, you will need:
- 1/3 cup of brown sugar
- 1/3 of butter
- 3 tablespoons of milk
- 1 1/2 cup of icing sugar
- half a cup of easter eggs, chopped up
Heat the brown sugar and butter over a medium heat on the stove and bring up to just before boil. Leave to cool for about 30 minutes before adding to the icing sugar.
When cooled, mix this with the icing sugar.
Have fun icing the cupcakes and add the chopped up chocolate pieces on top and there you have it.
