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.

Categories     dessert

Time 2h15m

Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

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 granulated sugar
2 large egg whites, at room temperature
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
4 cups confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 12 muffin cups with paper cupcake liners.
  • Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a medium bowl. Set aside. Stir together the milk and vanilla in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Beat the butter using an electric mixer on low speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup of the granulated 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 using 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 among the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, rotating the tin halfway through, about 20 minutes. Cool the cupcakes on a rack in the tin for 10 minutes, and then remove from the tin to cool completely on the rack.
  • Beat together the cream cheese and butter using an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla and lemon juice. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the confectioners' sugar, beating until well combined.
  • Transfer the frosting to a piping bag or resealable bag and pipe onto the tops of the cupcakes.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup white sugar
⅓ cup water
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Nutrition Facts : Calories 68.4 calories, Carbohydrate 16.8 g, Protein 0.6 g, Sodium 9.3 mg, Sugar 16.7 g

Tips:

  • For the best results, use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour. Cake flour is a finer flour that will produce a lighter and fluffier cupcake.
  • Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help the ingredients mix together more easily and will also result in a more evenly baked cupcake.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough and dense.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only about 2/3 full. This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the cupcakes dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For the creamiest cream cheese frosting, make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before you start mixing it.
  • Add the powdered sugar to the cream cheese a little at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the frosting from becoming lumpy.
  • If the frosting is too thick, add a little milk or cream to thin it out. If the frosting is too thin, add a little more powdered sugar.

Conclusion:

These fluffy white cupcakes with creamy cream cheese frosting are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are light and airy, with a delicate flavor that is sure to please everyone. The frosting is rich and creamy, with a hint of tanginess that perfectly complements the sweetness of the cupcakes. Whether you are baking for a birthday party, a potluck, or just a special treat for yourself, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit.
