Chocolate cupcakes recipe

The best chocolate cupcakes

The little cakes, which were first baked in America in 1828, are more popular than ever in Switzerland and Europe. The basic ingredients of the cupcakes are always similar - chocolate, flour, milk, butter, sugar and eggs. Depending on the recipe, different flavours or colours are added to the basic batter to give it a special touch. This is often done with fruit, nuts, coconut or, most commonly, chocolate chips.

The decoration is an equally important part of every cupcake. These are often fillings/toppings, which are also flavoured, or elegant decorations made from marzipan and fondant, usually in the form of figures or flowers

Most important key data

Quantity: 12 pieces

Baking time: approx. 18 minutes

Difficulty level: Easy

Shelf life: 5-7 days

Ingredients

Butter120 g
Couverture |dark140 g
Egg white | liquid120 g
Almonds | ground60 g
Hazelnuts | ground20 g
White flour50 g
Granulated sugar170 g

Manufacture

Preheat the oven to 160 °C.

Melt the butter together with the Lindt couverture over a bain-marie.

Place the egg whites, melted butter and liquid couverture in a bowl and mix with a hand mixer or food processor to form a homogeneous mixture.

Mix the ground almonds, hazelnuts, sugar and white flour together in a bowl and add to the whipped mixture. Mix until the mixture is homogeneous.

Pour the finished mixture into prepared cupcake cases and bake in a cupcake baking tray at 160°C fan oven for about 18 minutes. (Filling weight per cupcake = 55 g)

Important to note

Always use a high quality of chocolate alde (couverture), as this is a decisive quality factor.

Decoration & arrangement ideas

The cupcakes can then be decorated and served as desired.

Storage & shelf life

The wonderfully chocolaty cupcakes can be kept at room temperature for 5 - 7 days. These delicacies can be frozen in the freezer for 3 months.
