Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 18

130 g plain (all purp) flour ((1 cup / 4.6oz) )
½ cup dutch processed cocoa ((40g / 1.4oz) )
½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup unsalted butter, melted ((113g / 1 stick) )
½ cup caster (superfine) sugar ((100g / 3.5oz) )
½ cup packed dark brown sugar ((100g / 3.5oz) )
2 large eggs, room temp
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ cup buttermilk
250 g cream cheese, softened
2 ¼ cup icing (confectioners / powdered) sugar, sifted
½ cup thickened (heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
85 g unsalted butter, softened ((¾ stick) )
¼ cup cocoa
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350F / 180C / 160C fan and line your muffin tins with paper cases
  • In a bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Mix well to combine.
  • In a separate bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together the melted butter and both sugars until smooth.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl each time and beating well after each. Add the vanilla and beat to combine.
  • Add ⅓ of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir through gently until just combined.
  • Now add half of the buttermilk, mix gently again. Continue like this until all the flour and buttermilk is combined... just. It is important not to overmix or be too heavy handed otherwise your cupcakes will turn out dense and tough.
  • Fill the cupcake cases to about only to about ½ full. Bake in the oven for around 18-20 minutes, turning the pan around in the oven half way through to make sure they bake evenly. When a toothpick inserted comes out with just a crumb or two, they are done.
  • Cool in the tin for 5 minutes before turning out onto a cooling rack. Make sure they are completely cool before frosting.
  • For the cheesecake filling, add the cream cheese, cream, vanilla and half the icing sugar to a bowl and beat using a handheld beater until smooth and creamy.
  • Use a sharp knife or cupcake corer to cut a hole in the top of each cupcake, then fill each with around 1 teaspoon of the cheesecake filling. Set aside the rest.
  • In another bowl, beat the butter and remaining sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the leftover cheesecake filling, cocoa and salt and beat just until smooth (don't overbeat).
  • Pipe the frosting on top of your cupcakes then roll the edges in cookie crumbs.

Cheesecake Stuffed Chocolate Cupcakes Recipe - (4.3/5) image

Provided by mzander

Number Of Ingredients 14

CHEESECAKE FILLING:
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips, divided
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (100-grams) granulated sugar
1/3 cup (66-grams) vegetable oil
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup water
6 ounces (170-grams) cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup (50-grams) granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • CUPCAKES: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two standard muffin tins with 16 paper liners. Place 1/2 cup of the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high for 45 seconds. Stir until smooth. If not completely melted, return to the microwave for 10 second bursts until smooth. Let cool. In a medium bowl combine the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl vigorously whisk the sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla until well combined. Beat in the melted chocolate chips. Gradually add the flour mixture alternatively with the water. The batter will be thin. FILLING: In the bowl of an electric mixer beat the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and salt until creamy. Stir in 1 cup of the chocolate chips. Fill each muffin cup half full. Spoon a tablespoon of the cream cheese filling over the batter. Spoon the remaining batter over the cream cheese filling. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. While still hot, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips onto the cupcakes. Let cool for 5 minutes, or until the chocolate chips are shiny, then spread to frost. Remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Notes about the recipe: Here's a chocolate alternative to the perfect yellow cake for your wedding cupcakes. Vinegar keeps the cake tender as it inhibits gluten from developing when beating the flour in the batter.

Time 4h35m

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups superfine sugar
1 1/2 cups cocoa powder
Pinch salt
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon instant coffee crystals
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Confectioners' sugar, as needed
4 ounces cream cheese
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2/3 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups hot water
3/4 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons white vinegar
1 tablespoon instant coffee crystals
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Regular or silver cupcake paper liners

Steps:

  • Make the Fudgy Frosting: Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Stir in the sugar, cocoa, and salt. (It may look grainy or sandy.) In a bowl combine the cream, sour cream and coffee. Whisk into the cocoa mixture and continue heating on low while stirring to dissolve the sugar grains. The mixture should get hot to the touch but never simmer or boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. Let cool until it thickens and becomes spreadable, about 3 hours. If too thin, stir in some confectioners' sugar.
  • Make the Filling: In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese. Add the sugar, egg, and vanilla and blend. Add the chips and mix a few seconds on low to just fold in.
  • Make the Cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. In a large measuring cup combine the water, oil, vinegar, instant coffee, and vanilla. Whisk it into the dry ingredients until just combined and don't worry if there are a few lumps.
  • Line 2 muffin tins with cupcake papers and fill each 2/3 full of batter. Drop a heaping teaspoon of the filling into the center of each. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes. Cool the cupcakes completely. Frost the cupcakes with the frosting.

3 large eggs, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder

4 cups powdered sugar
1 lemon, zested
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 2 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners and grease with butter spray.
  • Make the base carrot cupcake batter: In a food processor, process the carrots until finely chopped.
  • In a large bowl, whip the butter with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the granulated and brown sugars, and beat until smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  • In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and vanilla extract.
  • Add the egg mixture to the butter mixture in thirds, beating on medium speed between each addition until fully incorporated.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in thirds, beating on low speed between each addition until incorporated.
  • Add the coconut oil and beat on medium-low speed for 1 minute, until fluffy.
  • Finish making the cupcakes according to your desired variation.
  • For the Cheesecake-Stuffed Carrot Cupcakes: Gently fold the carrots and 1⅓ cups Fisher Walnuts into the batter.
  • Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese and sour cream with an electric hand mixer on medium-low speed until fluffy, 2 minutes. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until fully incorporated. Add the eggs and beat on low speed until smooth.
  • Spoon the carrot cupcake batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each a little more than halfway. Tap the muffin tins on the counter to smooth the batter. Spoon the cheesecake filling over the batter, filling each cup ¾ of the way. Bake the cupcakes for 25-27 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, make the lemon vanilla cream cheese frosting: In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese and vanilla extract with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until fluffy, 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the powdered sugar and beat on low speed until smooth. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt, and mix on low speed to incorporate. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • To frost, place the tip of the piping bag upright at the center of a cupcake and squeeze until the cupcake is covered with frosting. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes, then garnish the centers with the remaining cup of Fisher Walnuts.
  • Enjoy!
