♡ Lindt cupcakes ♡
May 19, 2018 Baking is one of my favourite things to do. Whenever I have free time I do it as much as I can and I love it. I want to make more baking blogposts but I honestly get so caught up in the excitement I forget! But I remembered this time and wanted to share it with you guys.
What a better time than a bank holiday to bake too. I really love bank holidays because I always do things with my family so I though an extra post would be perfect to go up now!
The recipe I used is Mary berry’s vanilla cupcakes (with a slight change)
Cupcakes
* 175 g butter
* 175 g self-raising flour
* 175 g caster sugar
* 1/2 tsp baking powder
* 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
* 1/2 tsp milk (if the mixture is too thick)
* 3 large eggs
Buttercream
* 150 g butter
* 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
* 2-3 tbsp milk
* 300 g icing sugar, sifted
* 1 and 1/2 tsp of coca powder
Method
1. I start by measuring all my ingredients out so it’s easier to be able to put them in as I go & pre-heating my oven to 180 degrees
2. First, I cream the butter & sugar together
3. Than I add the eggs, baking powder & vanilla extract.
4. To bind it all together I add the flour gradually and a dash of milk if it’s too think.
5. I add the mixture to the cupcake trays and bake for 25 minutes
6. For the buttercream, I start by creaming together all the butter to make it smoother than adding the milk and vanilla extract
7. Gradually add the icing sugar, mixed with the cocoa powder for a chocolate like colour
8. Using a piping bag & nozzle (wiltons 2D) frost the icing onto the cupcakes & add the Lindt chocolate on top! These honestly tastes amazing!
I’m so happy with how they went because I didn’t expect them to go this well! I hope someone makes these & enjoys these because all my family loves them!

These look delicious! Lindt chocolate is the BEST chocolate out there, and I can only imagine combining it with cake makes it extra good.
