As promised last week I plan to share a few cupcake recipes with you. But first; look at this Caramel Cupcake; doesn’t that look like you wanna go right into the kitchen just now? Well I have a few of such delicious recipes coming up soon so make sure you on the list and don’t miss any of my sweet treats.

I’ve been making some really delicious cupcakes for family and friends and they’ve been raving about it all day making me feel like a star.

Like Caramel? yes you do.. I love Caramel and my little Rhea can eat it out of a bowl with a spoon. Can you imagine Caramel filing in the cupcake and then drizzles all over the cupcake frosting? Yes!! Absolutely heaven.

The Caramel Sauce

Now I make Caramel at home and there is nothing more delicious than fresh homemade Caramel because it so easy to make !! But you can use store bought Caramel too!! You can find my recipe for Homemade Caramel Sauce here

The drizzling Caramel

Remember this little tease I shared a few days ago on my Instagram

This Caramel Cupcake recipes is simply the most decadent you can get, with a light and fluffy Vanilla Sponge on the inside; filled with soft sweet caramel, topped with delicious Swiss Meringue Buttercream and then drizzled with some more caramel again .

Frosting – American or Meringue

I personally prefer to use a Meringue Buttercream rather than American Buttercream for these cupcakes because it’s much less sweet in taste and has a more velvety mouth feel.  You can find my recipe for Swiss Meringue Buttercream and Italian Meringue Buttercream here on my blog as well.
Furthermore; the Caramel is sweet too. So keep in mind that American Buttercream and Caramel together may make it a very sweet combination.

RECIPE – Caramel Cupcakes with soft caramel centers

Tools

• Cake Mixer – K-mix;Kitchen-Aidor Hand held mixer works too
• Mixing Bowl
• Whisk
• Wooden Spoon
• Flour Sieve

Ingredients

• 140 grams (1 1/4 stick ) unsalted Butter
• 150 grams (3/4 cup) white granulated Sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 150 grams (1 1/4 cup) – All Purpose Flour
• 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
• 1/4 tsp Baking Soda
• 1/2 cup Sour Cream
• 1 tsp Vanilla
• 1/2 Cup Caramel
• 4 Cups Swiss Meringue Buttercream

Method:

• Preheat the oven to 160 C / 380 F
• Swift the flour with salt, baking powder and baking soda.
• Whisk the egg using a whisk attachment until light and foamy – Set aside.
• Cream the butter and sugar until light and foamy.
• Next add in the sour cream and flour mixture alternating in three batches.
• Add Vanilla.
• Lastly fold in the egg mixture.
• I use an Ice Cream or Cookie Scoop to pour batter into the cupcakes.
• This should make about 12 to 15 baking cups like mine or 15 to 18 cupcakes.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 18 to 20 minutes or until the skewer inserted in the center comes out clean
• Cool completely but do not put in the fridge.
• Have Caramel ready – use store bought or homemade Caramel

Prepare buttercream using the step by step found on my cake blog

Assemble

• Once cupcakes are cooled
• I prefer a more soft caramel so I microwave it for 20 seconds in a piping bag and filled the cupcake centers with soft drippy caramel. (the picture is of a fresh caramel cupcakes above)
• Prepare a piping bag with Swiss Meringue Buttercream and your favorite Cupcake Swirl piping nozzle.
• Use a cupcake core or a melon baler to make a hole in the center of the cupcake and fill with Caramel and close the hole.
• Pipe a buttercream swirl on top
• Drizzle some melted Caramel on the top as well.
