Marbled cupcake with chocolate swirls topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups premium flour
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon fine salt
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 170 g melted butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 tbsp cocoa
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (170°C) and position the oven rack on the middle shelf. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small bowl.
In another medium bowl, beat the eggs and sugar with a mixer for about 2 minutes until fluffy. While beating, gradually whisk in the butter, then add the vanilla extract.
- While stirring slowly, add half the dry ingredients. Then add all the milk, followed by the remaining dry ingredients. Be careful not to overmix the batter!
Set aside one-third of the dough and stir in the cocoa powder. Fill the molds evenly, alternating light and dark dough. Use a wooden skewer to create curls. Tap the mold firmly on the counter several times to distribute the dough evenly.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes on a wire rack in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove them from the pan. Cool completely on a wire rack. Decorate as desired.
