COWBOY CUPCAKES RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 5

Chocolate frosted chocolate cupcakes (I used cake mix and canned frosting)
Pringle potato chips (Original)
Large white sugar-coated gumdrops
Twizzlers Pull 'n Peel string licorice candy
Twine for decorating cupcakes

Steps:

  • Bake and cool cupcakes. Tie a small piece of twine around each cupcake. While cupcakes are cooling, make the hats: Snip a small cut in the center of each gumdrop and dip it in sugar so it won't stick back together. Peel off a string of the licorice and cut to fit around the base of each gumdrop, pinching the ends together to seal. Place one in the center of each potato chip. (Secure gumdrop with a dot of frosting (or melted white chocolate) underneath, if needed.) When cupcakes are cool, frost tops generously and carefully place a "hat" on each one. NOTE: The gumdrops I had were too small so I had to split two of them and join together, dabbing the peak in sugar to keep it from sticking back together.

Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
2 cups white sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups milk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Combine sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk eggs together in a second bowl for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Beat milk, oil, and vanilla extract together in another large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until incorporated. Add the flour mixture in increments, making sure it mixes in well. Fold in eggs. Scoop batter into the prepared muffin cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • To achieve the perfect cupcake texture, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the mixture, resulting in a tender and moist crumb.
  • Use buttermilk instead of milk in the batter. Buttermilk adds a slight tanginess that complements the chocolate and coffee flavors, and it also helps to keep the cupcakes moist.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense cupcakes. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cupcakes at a moderate temperature (325°F) for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
  • For a rich and creamy frosting, use a combination of butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar. Add a touch of vanilla extract for flavor.
  • Decorate the cupcakes with chocolate chips, sprinkles, or other toppings of your choice.

Conclusion:

The Cowboy Cupcake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its moist chocolate cake, creamy coffee frosting, and crunchy chocolate chips, it is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give the Cowboy Cupcake a try. You won't be disappointed!
