Time 2h10m

Yield 15 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 3/4 cups (222 grams) all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
6 tablespoons (90 grams) heavy cream, at room temperature
1 cup (135 grams) corn kernels, thawed if frozen
6 tablespoons (90 grams) sour cream, at room temperature
1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup (50 grams) refined coconut oil, soft but not melted
1 cup (200 grams) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste or extract
1/4 cup (70 grams) cranberry sauce
1/2 cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup (113 grams) cream cheese, at room temperature
3 cups (360 grams) powdered sugar
Pinch kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste or extract
2 tablespoons (30 grams) heavy cream
About 2/3 cup thick cranberry sauce (if it's super runny, drain off some of the juices)
Sliced fresh cranberries, for decorating
Fresh rosemary sprigs, for decorating

Steps:

  • For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cupcake pans with 15 cupcake liners, spacing them out evenly between the two pans.
  • Sift together the flour and baking powder in a medium bowl, then lightly stir in the salt and set aside. Combine the heavy cream and 1/2 cup corn in a food processor and puree until smooth, being careful not to overblend so the cream doesn't turn into butter. Add the sour cream and blend just to combine, then set aside.
  • Cream together the butter, coconut oil and granulated sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed, scraping down the sides occasionally with a rubber spatula to make sure everything is incorporated evenly, until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla. Reduce the mixer to medium-low and add the dry mixture and corn puree mixture in 3 alternating additions, then fold in the remaining 1/2 cup corn kernels with a rubber spatula. Using an ice cream scoop, distribute the batter evenly among the cupcake liners.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate the pans and continue to bake until the cupcakes are thinking about starting to turn brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs on it, 6 to 10 minutes more. If the cupcakes need more time, continue to bake and check them frequently (like every 30 to 45 seconds). Let them cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the buttercream: If desired, press the cranberry sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to get rid of the cranberry skins, which will yield a smoother buttercream. This step is not necessary, though. Beat together the cranberry sauce, butter and cream cheese in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, salt and vanilla and continue beating until combined. Beat in the heavy cream. Transfer to a piping bag.
  • To assemble: Use an apple corer to extract the centers of the cupcakes. Transfer the thick cranberry sauce to a piping bag or resealable plastic bag with the corner snipped off, then pipe it into the centers of the cupcakes. Pipe a blob of frosting onto the cupcakes and decorate with sliced cranberries and rosemary sprigs. Enjoy! These are best enjoyed within a day or two.

Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box cake mix ( i used dark chocolate )
FOR THE FILLING:
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 c sugar
1 egg
1 c mini chocolate chips
4 drops yellow food coloring
2 drops red food coloring
frosting of your choice

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make cake mix according to the box directions.
  • 2. In a separate bowl, mix cream cheese,sugar,egg until creamy and well blended. Add the food coloring and mix until uniform in color. Fold in the chocolate chips. Put to the side.
  • 3. Line muffin tins with liners. Spoon in cake batter about 1/3 full. Top with a teaspoon of the cream cheese filling. Spoon more cake batter to almost the top of the liners.
  • 4. Bake about 20 minutes until cakes are set. Let cool. Decorate with frosting and decorations of your choice. ( I went easy this time and used store bought) :0

Tips:

  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help it blend smoothly and prevent lumps.
  • Use a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to fill the cupcakes. This will help you create a clean, even filling.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cupcakes and make them less tender.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting.
  • If you are using a store-bought frosting, be sure to whip it until it is light and fluffy before spreading it on the cupcakes.

Conclusion:

Cream cheese stuffed cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
