Recipe of Dairy milk chocolate
It has been quite a while since I have done some baking or posted a recipe on my blog! I just randomly got the urge to bake some cupcakes. Dairy Milk is my favourite chocolate, ever. So I took some inspiration from their Marvellous creations bars and baked some Dairy Milk chocolate cupcakes with chocolate, jelly beans, chocolate buttercream frosting, smarties and popping candy – that was a mouthful! They taste lovely, perfect for the choc-a-holic, which in my family is of course me! Here’s how I made them.
What you will need : for the cupcakes
One large fresh egg
40 grams of unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
20 grams of cocoa powder
140 grams of caster sugar
120 ml of fresh whole milk
1 and a half teaspoons of baking powder
100 grams of plain flour
Pre heat your oven to 180 degrees, take a large mixing bowl add the egg, butter, vanilla extract and sugar. Whisk until well combined. Now add the baking powder, cocoa powder and milk, slowly sift in the flour, mix well to ensure the cupcake mixture is nice and smooth. Line a cupcake tray with paper cases, carefully scoop in the mixture about 3/4’s of the way full and place them into the oven to bake for around 20-25 minutes but I check on them at the 19 minute mark and keep a close eye on them.To double check that the cupcakes are baked thoroughly, pierce the cupcake with a skewer, if it comes out clean, the cupcakes are done, if not pop them back in the oven for another 5 minutes or so. Leave the cupcakes on a wire rack to cool down before you begin decorating them (or the icing will just melt!)
What you will need: to decorate
Betty Crocker’s chocolate fudge icing
One bar of Dairy Milk marvellous creations
Two tubes of Smarties
One packet of Jelly Beans
A sachet or two of popping candyI know, I know, I feel like such a cheat using a tub of Betty Crocker’s icing. I normally always make the buttercream icing myself but I just didn’t have time this morning! Besides they still taste just as good and not everyone always has the time / money to buy and do things from scratch. Once the cupcakes have completely cooled down, scoop the icing into a piping bag, carefully pipe the icing onto the cupcakes. Then break off chunks from the dairy milk bar, pop them into the icing, and decorate with smarties, jelly beans and top with popping candy to finish!
