Strawberry cupcakes with curd cream
Greetings, dear guests and friends of the Home Restaurant! I dedicate today's recipe to all those with a sweet tooth and lovers of beautiful and tasty desserts. As you may have guessed from the name of the recipe, we will prepare strawberry cupcakes at home with curd cream.
I had the idea of making strawberry cupcakes with filling inside for a long time, I just had to wait for the strawberry season to make these delicious mini-cakes with a beautiful white cap made of curd cream, and delicious strawberry slices on top. Delicious cupcakes filled with strawberries and white chocolate ganache, combined with juicy cupcake dough and curd cream, make this dessert worthy of your attention!
My recipe for homemade cupcakes with strawberries is not at all complicated, but quite labor-intensive. After all, you need to bake the cupcakes themselves, prepare the filling, and make two types of cream.
I recommend making: Coconut cupcakes with buttercream (Swiss meringue)
For the recipe, I chose kefir cupcake dough with vegetable oil - and I was not mistaken! The cupcakes turned out exactly as they should be: juicy, moderately fluffy, something between cupcake and sponge dough.
I can definitely classify this recipe for cupcakes at home as basic. Also, if you want to make simple cupcakes at home for the first time, I recommend that you start with the following recipe for cupcake dough with kefir.
The recipe for cupcake cream at home will also not cause you any difficulties: we will use homemade cottage cheese, butter, and white chocolate ganache. The result is an excellent cupcake cream that holds its shape, and is not as greasy as classic butter-based cupcake cream recipes.
So, let’s prepare cupcakes at home - a step-by-step recipe with photos especially for you, on the Home Restaurant website!
Ingredients for 15 cupcakes:
Cupcake batter:
- 170 gr. flour
- 150 gr. Sahara
- 150 ml. vegetable oil
- 140 ml. kefir
- 2 eggs
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp red food coloring
- 0.5 tsp soda
White chocolate ganache:
- 100 gr. white chocolate
- 110 ml. cream
- 100 gr. butter
- 2 tbsp. powdered sugar
Curd cream:
- 300 gr. cottage cheese
- 70 gr. powdered sugar
- 65 gr. white chocolate ganache
- 50 gr. butter
Additionally:
- 250 gr. strawberries for filling
- 15 small strawberries for decoration
- mint for decoration
How to make cupcakes at home:
We start preparing cupcakes by combining all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Mix with a whisk: flour, soda, salt, baking powder and food coloring.
Next, in a separate bowl, combine the eggs with sugar.
And beat with a mixer into a fluffy foam until the sugar crystals are completely dissolved. Add kefir and vegetable oil to the egg-sugar mixture and mix thoroughly.
Combine the dry and liquid mixture and stir with a whisk until smooth.
The dough for cupcakes made with kefir turns out to be quite liquid - that’s how it should be.
Let's prepare a cupcake mold and paper capsules.
Fill paper molds 2/3 full with dough using a spoon.
Place the cupcakes in a preheated oven at 170 degrees. oven for 20 minutes. Heating: from below and from above, without convection; The grille position is in the middle.
Check the finished cupcakes for doneness with a wooden skewer. Remove from the mold and wait for the cupcakes to cool completely.
Next, using a small knife, cut out the center of the cupcakes for the filling.
Prepare white chocolate ganache:
Pour the cream into a saucepan and break the white chocolate into pieces.
Heat the cream until hot, but do not boil. Add white chocolate to hot cream.
Mix with a whisk and put in a cool place. We wait for the mass to cool to room temperature.
Next, little by little add the cooled creamy chocolate mixture to the softened butter and mix with a whisk.
We will get a thick and dense white chocolate ganache.
Spread the center walls of the cupcakes with white chocolate ganache. It should look something like my photo.
Cut the strawberries for cupcake filling into small cubes.
Fill the centers of all cupcakes with strawberry filling using a teaspoon.
We “seal” the top of the cupcakes with white chocolate ganache. We put the cupcakes in the refrigerator and start preparing the curd cream.
Prepare cupcake cream that holds its shape:
Place in a large bowl: cottage cheese, softened butter, powdered sugar and the remaining white chocolate ganache (there should be about 60-65 grams of ganache left).
Mix all the ingredients first with a spoon or spatula.
And then thoroughly grind with an immersion blender until smooth, so that there are no lumps.
We cover the finished cream for cupcakes at home with cling film and put it in the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes so that the cream cools a little and becomes thicker.
Next comes the most interesting part of making cupcakes at home: we will decorate the cupcakes with cream and berries.
Fill a pastry bag with cooled curd cream and pipe a fluffy top onto the cupcakes using a pastry tip. I used the star attachment.
There are many ways to decorate cupcakes at home, but I think fresh berries and mint leaves are a safe bet. To decorate the cupcakes, I cut small strawberries in half and added cocktail mint leaves to the arrangement.
Place the finished cupcakes with cream in a suitable container that can be covered with a lid or covered with cling film so that the cupcakes do not dry out, and put them in the refrigerator.
Friends, now you know how to make cupcakes at home. I hope you enjoy my recipe for cupcakes with filling! I look forward to your feedback and comments on the recipe.
Tips and tricks:
If you want to make simple cupcakes at home, you can safely omit the white chocolate ganache and strawberries from the recipe. Red food coloring can be substituted for cocoa without changing the proportions of the cupcake batter recipe. And you can replace the white chocolate ganache in the curd cream recipe with an equal amount of butter.
For cottage cheese cream, choose cottage cheese with a neutral taste, without the specific taste of sour milk products. I used full fat soft cottage cheese from the market, but any soft cottage cheese from the store will also work.
