Vanilla Cupcake with hearth-shaped jelly for Mothers’ Day
What’s special about these cupcakes is the toppings, in fact today we will learn how to prepare homemade hearth-shaped jellies to decorate this special gift for Mother’s Day.
Ingredients for the batter:
- 10 oz of all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon of baking powder
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- 4 oz of unsalted, softened butter
- 6 oz of sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 oz buttermilk
Ingredients for the jelly:
- 10 oz fruit juice (whichever flavor you like)
- 1 oz of gelatin
- 17 oz cups sugar
- 17 oz fruit preserves or jam (whichever flavor you like)
Preparation for the cupcakes batter:
- Preheat your oven to 350° F and start combining in a medium bowl all the dry ingredients except for the sugar (flour, baking powder, salt). Set aside the flour mix.
- Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer (medium-high speed) for about 5 minutes, until thick and fluffy.
- o the butter and sugar mix, start adding one egg at a time, beating well in between. Add the vanilla extract and combine.
- Reducing the mixer’s speed, start adding a bit of flour, alternating it with the buttermilk. Careful not to over-beat!
- Pour the cupcake butter in 12 baking cups, filling 2/3 full.
- Bake the cupcakes for 20/25 minutes until well cooked. TIPS: insert a toothpick in one cupcake, if the toothpick comes out clean, the cupcakes are ready!
Preparation for the fruit jellies:
- Place 2/3 of the juice in a bowl, sprinkle with the gelatin, and let it sit for 5 minutes. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining juice and 1 ½ cup of the sugar.
- Bring the juice and sugar mix to a boil, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Add the preserves and whisk to combine. Return to a boil and cook until thick and syrupy.
- Add the gelatin mixture and whisk until the gelatin dissolves. Pour the combined mixture through a fine mesh, sieve into a silicone heart-shaped mold and refrigerate 3 hours.
- When the jellies are ready, pour them into a bowl and coat them with the remaining sugar.
Now that the jellies are ready, you can decorate your cupcakes for Mother’s Day.
