Snickerdoodle Cupcakes with Cinnamon Swirl Frosting Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by รก-466

Number Of Ingredients 20

Cupcakes
1 and 2/3 cups (210g) all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 cups (300g) granulated sugar, divided
1/2 cup (1 stick or 115g) unsalted butter, melted
1 large egg
1/4 cup (60g) yogurt
3/4 cup (180ml) milk
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Cinnamon-Swirl Frosting
1 cup (2 sticks or 230g) salted or unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
3-4 cups (360-480g) confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup (60ml) heavy cream or half-and-half*
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
salt, to taste
1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
12 snickerdoodle cookies, mini size

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Line muffin tin with 12 cupcake liners. Set aside. In a medium bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave. Whisk in 1 cup of sugar - mixture will be gritty. Stir in egg, yogurt, milk, and vanilla extract until combined. Slowly mix in dry ingredients until no lumps remain. Batter will be thick. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cinnamon together. Set aside. Spoon 2 scant Tablespoons of cupcake batter into each cupcake liner. Top with 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Top with 1 heaping Tablespoon of cupcake batter, until the cupcake tins are about 3/4 full. Some of the cinnamon-sugar filling from the center layer may peek through the top layer of batter. See photo above for a visual. Top each cupcake with 1 teaspoon more of the cinnamon-sugar. Bake the cupcakes for 19-21 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting. To make the frosting, beat softened butter on medium speed with an electric or stand mixer. Beat for about 3 minutes until smooth and creamy. Add confectioners' sugar, cream, and vanilla extract with the mixer running. Increase to high speed and beat for 3 full minutes (the longer you beat, the creamier the frosting). Add more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin or more cream if the frosting is too thick. Taste the frosting and add salt if frosting is too sweet (1/4 teaspoon). Remove half of the frosting from the mixing bowl and transfer to a smaller mixing bowl. Add 1 Tablespoon of cinnamon and beat until combined, about 30 seconds. To swirl the frosting, spoon half cinnamon frosting into the piping bag and half vanilla frosting into the piping bag. See above for a visual. Pipe onto cupcakes as desired. I used a Wilton 1M swirl tip. If you do not have a piping bag and tip, simply frost the cupcakes with both the vanilla and cinnamon frostings. There may be leftover frosting depending how much you use on each cupcake. Store cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days and in the refrigerator up to 5.

Seven-Minute Frosting for Cupcakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line standard muffin tins with paper liners. Sift together both flours, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  • With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until each is incorporated, scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in vanilla. Reduce speed to low. Add flour mixture in three batches, alternating with two additions of milk, and beating until combined after each.
  • Divide batter evenly among lined cups, filling each three-quarters full. Bake, rotating tins halfway through, until a cake tester inserted in centers comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer tins to wire racks to cool completely before removing cupcakes. Cupcakes can be stored up to 2 days at room temperature, or frozen up to 2 months, in airtight containers.
  • To finish, combine remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon and 2 tablespoons sugar. Using a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip (Ateco No. 809 or Wilton No. 1A), pipe frosting on each cupcake: Hold bag over cupcake with tip just above top, and squeeze to create a dome of frosting, then release pressure and pull up to form a peak. Using a small, fine sieve, dust peaks with cinnamon-sugar. Cupcakes are best eaten the day they are frosted; keep at room temperature until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • For the perfect cupcake texture, make sure to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a tender and moist crumb.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough cupcake.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda. Old baking powder and baking soda can lose their potency, resulting in flat or dense cupcakes.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full. This will allow the cupcakes to rise properly without overflowing.
  • Bake the cupcakes at the correct temperature. If the oven is too hot, the cupcakes will brown too quickly and may be undercooked in the center. If the oven is too cool, the cupcakes will take too long to bake and may be dry.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

Snickerdoodle cupcakes with cinnamon frosting are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They're perfect for any occasion, from birthday parties to holiday gatherings. With their soft and fluffy texture, sweet and cinnamony flavor, and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
