Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

for the cupcakes
1/2 c unsalted butter
1 c brown sugar, firmly packed
1 whole egg
1 egg yolk
2 tsp root beer extract (available at u-brew stores)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 c buttermilk
for the frosting
1 c whipping cream (35% fat)
2 Tbsp brown sugar, packed
1 tsp root beer extract
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 pkg dr. oetker whip-it (or other whipped cream stabilizer, 10 grams)

Steps:

  • 1. For the cupcakes (makes 12) Cream butter and sugar.
  • 2. Stir in extracts.
  • 3. Add egg and egg yolk and beat. Set aside.
  • 4. In seperate bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  • 5. Add dry ingredients to wet in two parts, alternating with buttermilk and completely combining between additions.
  • 6. Pour into a lined 12-count muffin tin.
  • 7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until tooth pick inserted in middle of cupcakes comes out clean. Cool completely.
  • 8. For the frosting - Whip all the ingredients on high until stiff peaks form. Frost cupcakes and store in refrigerator.
  • 9. **If you cannot find a whipped cream stabilizer, I used unflavored gelatin. I placed 1 tsp. of unflavored gelatin in 2 TBLSP of cold water (in a heat proof bowl, preferably metal), then placed the gelatin mixture (still in the metal bowl) OVER a pan of boiling water until gelatin dissolved. Then let this come to room temperature. While whipping the cream pour the room temperature gelatin into the whipped cream.

I'm not a big fan of root beer, but these cupcakes were still really good. The frosting was sweet and creamy and the cupcakes were moist and fluffy.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. The frosting was a bit too thick and the cupcakes were a bit too dry.
