Dear lovely readers,
I´d like to introduce myself. My Name is Christina, I´m a friend of Anna and a blogger myself. At
Christinamachtwas I share with you my latest recipes, my thoughts and so much more. Take a look, but first I´d like to show you my Almost Alice Cupcake that I created just for my lovely Anna.
For the inspiration I took a picture that Anna posted a few posts back. It´s this one:
I thought it would be perfect for a Cupcake, and I was right. They´re terrific, aren´t they?
You will need for 6 - 8 Cupcakes:
Ingredients:
200 g Flour
1/2 Ts Bakingpowder
1/2 Ts Natron (Bakingsoda)
1 pinch of Salt
70 g Butter
100 g Sugar
1 Egg
75 ml Milk
2 Hands full Berrys (Blueberrys + Red Currant)
1/2 Lemon
|
Directions:
Mix together flour, bakingpowder,
bakingsoda & salt.
Whisk butter and sugar until it´s fluffy.
Add the egg and the milk to the buttermixture
and whisk until it´s comined.
Now add the flourmixture and
only use a wooden spoon to combine.
It´s not bad if there are flourflakes in the batter!
Now add the berrys and gently fold them in.
If you like you can squeeze a little bit of
the lemonjuice in the batter.
Fill it in papercups and bake at 180 °C about
12 - 15 Minutes. Make the "chopstick"-test.
Let them cool completely.

And for the frosting you´ll need:
Ingredients:
250 g Mascapone
1 Package Cream Cheese
2 - 4 Ts Powdersugar
Food dye in teal and blue
if you want: Sugarpearls in black
|
Directions:
Whisk everything together and
garnish the Cupcakes with it.
Add Sugarpearls to the frosting and enjoy!

I hope you liked my little sweet Almost Alice Cupcakes & I
would be pleased to welcome you to my blog as well.
