Kägicino Cupcakes

Kaegi Kaegicino Cupcake Rezeptidee 1200X450Px

Delicious cupcakes with a tender heart of Kägi Cappuccino, created for you by the sugar-plum fairy from SugarCouture. Simple to bake and irresistibly creamy!

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 150 °C (fan on); fill a muffin tray with cupcake cases. Melt the white chocolate couverture in a bowl in a bain-marie.

2. Whisk together the butter, sugar and vanilla bean paste until the mixture is very light (hand blender or food processor). Add the eggs and a pinch of salt and continue to whisk until the mixture is light and airy. Fold the instant espresso powder into the melted chocolate and stir, together with the milk, into the dough mixture until a creamy airy mixture forms. Next, gently stir in the flour and baking powder.

3. Fill dough mixture into the cupcake cases until half full, then place a Kägi Cappuccino mini in each case mixture (divide into quarters for mini cupcakes). Now place the muffin tray in the oven for 14-18 minutes. After 14 minutes, do a first wooden skewer test. The cupcakes are finished baking when the dough mixture no longer sticks to the inserted skewer.

4. Whilst the cupcakes are baking in the oven, mix the butter, icing sugar and vanilla bean paste at high speed for about 8 minutes until a homogeneous mixture forms.

5. In the meantime, stir the boiling water into the instant espresso powder, followed by the cream. Fold the cream mixture into the vanilla paste mixture and mix at high speed for a further 1½ minutes.

6. Fit a nozzle to a piping bag, fill with buttercream and pipe onto the cooled cupcakes. Decorate cupcakes with Kägi Cappuccino minis (divide into quarters for mini cupcakes).

Kägi and the sugar-plum fairy from SugarCouture say: Bon appétit!
