Happy Wednesday! It’s time for another hump day treat recipe here on Just Jodi Style and today’s theme is Christmas. I personally don’t celebrate the holiday, but I do love all of the delicious treats that come along with it. This recipe I found from Tastemade and they look absolutely adorable! Check out the recipe here below.
Ingredients:
- 24 strawberries
- For the cake
- 200g unsalted butter, softened
- 25g vegetable oil
- 260g caster sugar
- 2 eggs
- 300g plain flour
- 1 ½ baking powder
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup whole milk
- For the frosting
- 125g unsalted butter
- 200g icing sugar
- 100g cream cheese
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 356 degrees .
- Cream together the butter, oil and sugar until pale.
- Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each one. Turn the whisk right down, if using an electric one, and add in the milk.
- Sift in the dry ingredients and fold through the mix.
- Grease the mini cupcake tray, and place a teaspoon amount of the mix into each of the cake holes.
- Place in the hot oven for around 12 minutes until fluffy and cooked through. The way to check if they are cooked all the way through is to poke the cupcakes with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean then it is cooked!
- While the cupcakes are baking, make the frosting.
- Whisk the butter with an electric whisk until very pale. Then on a low speed, whisk in the icing sugar and once combined, whisk in the cream cheese till just mixed. Place in a piping bag with a round hole nozzle attached or simple cut off the end of the piping bag.
- Once the cakes are out and cooled, pipe a spiral shape on the top of the cakes. Start from the outside and slowly work your way into the centre.
- Trim the top of the strawberry and place on top. Finish with a blob of frosting on the top.
And there you go! Hope you all enjoy and have a great Wednesday <3
