A rich chocolate cupcake topped with buttercream and cherries.
Ingredients:
4oz Unsalted butter
4oz Self raising flour
4oz Caster sugar
50g Cocoa powder
2 Eggs
Buttercream:
200g Unsalted butter (soft)
450g Sifted icing sugar
2tbsp Milk
½tsp Vanilla extract
10g Dried cherries
Decoration:
Fresh cherries
Method:
1. Preheat your oven to 180°C and line a cupcake tray with cases. In a bowl mix together the butter and sugar using an electric whisk. Whisk until light and fluffy, from there add in the eggs, cocoa powder and flour and carry on whisking until fully combined.
2. Spoon the mixture evenly into each case and place in the oven for about 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. When your cupcakes are done set aside to cool.
3. While your cupcakes are cooling its time to make the buttercream. Cream the butter into a large bowl whilst gradually adding the icing sugar. Cream until light and fluffy. Add the vanilla and milk, stir well. Dice the dried cherries up very small so they fit through the piping bag. Add to the icing and stir with a spoon. Place the buttercream into a large piping bag fitted with a nozzle of your choice! Pipe a swirl on each cupcake and top them with fresh cherries.
