Tiramisu cupcakes

A wonderful small cupcake to put in a large paper cup, Katerina's recipe that I've slightly changed. :)

 

Ingredients:

Dough: 

3 eggs

100 gr sugar

50 gr wheat starch

50 gr flour

1 tblspn vanilla pudding powder

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Decoration:

2 cups espresso coffees

500 gr mascarpone cheese

90 gr powdered sugar

200 ml whipped cream

bitter cocoa powder

Whip the whites of the egg and slowly add sugar. Slowly add one at the time wheat starch, flour, vanilla pudding powder, baking pouder and the yolks. Place the mixture in the muffin cups, but leave them half empty and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 20 minutes. This recipe should make around 20 muffins. 

Make the coffee and when the muffins are cold, perforate them with a fork and put 2 teaspoons of coffee on each muffin. 

For the decoration whip the cream and slowly add sugar. At the end add mascarpone cheese and gently mix together until smooth. Now you can either use a knife or a sac a poche to put the cream on the top of the muffins. Before you put them in the fridge cover them with some bitter cocoa. The muffins should rest in the fridge for at least 15 hours to get the best taste. 

I hope you'll like it, me and my friend certainly did! :)

Muffins with chocolate and puffed rice

100 gr dark chocolate

200 ml milk

3 eggs

320 gr flour (type 400)

80 gr bitter cocoa powder

Put the butter in the food mixer and mix for a few minutes, then add sugar and continue to mix until it's smooth. (Leave the butter at the room temperature before using it.) Add the eggs and mix well. Slowly add the lukewarm mil and afterwards the flour with the baking powder, salt and vanilla sugar.
