Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 2h15m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1/2 cup milk, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
2 large egg whites, at room temperature
4 large egg whites
2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch of cream of tartar
Pinch of fine salt
2 to 3 drops liquid food coloring

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl. Stir the milk and vanilla together in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat the butter in a large bowl using an electric mixer on low speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup of the sugar. Increase the speed to high and beat until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low. Add about one-third of the flour mixture and beat until just combined. Add half the milk mixture and beat until smooth. Repeat, adding flour, then milk, and then the remaining flour, stopping and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat briefly to make a smooth batter; set aside.
  • Put the egg whites in a clean bowl. Whip with an electric mixer on high speed until foamy. Gradually add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and continue to beat until the egg whites are glossy and hold stiff peaks, about 10 minutes. Fold one-third of the whites into the batter to lighten it and then fold in the remaining whites. Divide the cake batter evenly between the cups of the prepared muffin tin.
  • Bake, rotating the tin halfway through, until a tester inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool the cupcakes on a rack in the tin for 10 minutes, then remove from the tin and cool completely on the rack.
  • Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a saucepan. Whisk together the egg whites, sugar, lemon juice, cream of tartar and salt in a medium heat-safe bowl. Set the bowl over the saucepan, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Continue whisking until the mixture is hot to the touch and the sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove the bowl from the water and whip with an electric mixer at medium-high speed until the meringue is cool and holds a soft peak, about 5 minutes. Add a few drops of desired food coloring to tint the frosting and continue beating until it holds stiff peaks.
  • Spoon or pipe the frosting decoratively and generously on the cupcakes.

Yield Makes about 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 pound (4 cups) confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Add the confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed; after every two additions, raise speed to high and beat 10 seconds to aerate frosting, then return to medium-high. This process should take about 5 minutes. Frosting will be very pale and fluffy.

FLUFFY WHITE CUPCAKES WITH CREAMY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING



Fluffy White Cupcakes With Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting image

Add in a little food coloring to the frosting and cake mix to create pastel shades if desired --- if you mix the cake batter by hand with a wooden spoon you will get a lesser amount of cupcakes, an electric mixer adds in more air while mixing you will get about 22-24 cupcakes --- for coconut cupcakes add in 1-2 teaspoons coconut extract (instead of the vanilla and almond extract) into the cake mix and frosting then sprinkle with soft flaked coconut on top of frosting.

Tips:

  • To achieve a moist and fluffy cupcake: Ensure your oven temperature is accurate by using an oven thermometer. Ingredients should be at room temperature before mixing. Do not overmix the batter, as this can result in dense cupcakes. Fill cupcake liners only 2/3 full to prevent overflow. For even baking, rotate the cupcake pan halfway through the baking time.
  • For a smooth and creamy frosting: Use unsalted butter at room temperature. Sift the powdered sugar to remove any lumps. Add the powdered sugar gradually to the butter, beating until light and fluffy. Avoid overbeating, as this can cause the frosting to become grainy.
  • To decorate your cupcakes: Use a piping bag fitted with a star tip to create swirls or rosettes on top of the cupcakes. You can also add sprinkles, chopped nuts, or edible glitter for a festive touch.

Anise licorice cupcakes with fluffy white frosting are a delightful treat that combines the unique flavor of anise with the sweetness of white frosting.
