Chef Tips

- All ingredients must be strictly at room temperature to prevent the butter from curdling when coming into contact with cold eggs or milk. - Fill only two-thirds of each paper liner so that the cupcakes grow without overflowing and have the ideal flat top for decorating. - Wait for the cookies to cool completely before applying any topping so as not to melt the glaze or buttercream.

Variations

- Chocolate chip cupcakes: mix half a cup of chocolate sprinkles into the dough before distributing into the molds. - Cupcakes with brigadeiro filling: use a piping tip to inject creamy brigadeiro into the center of the already baked and cold cupcake. - Citrus touch of orange: add a teaspoon of orange zest and replace two spoons of milk with fresh juice.

Substitutions

- Unsalted butter: use cooking margarine with 80% fat content or coconut oil in a pasty texture. - Vanilla extract: replace with pure natural vanilla extract, vanilla bean scrapings, or Sicilian lemon zest. - Cow's milk: use oat vegetable milk, almond milk, or natural yogurt diluted in the same proportion.

How to Store

Store the unfrosted cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If they are already decorated with dairy-based creams (like cream cheese or whipped cream), keep in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in a covered container.

Can You Freeze It?

Freeze the already baked and completely cooled cupcakes without frosting, individually wrapped in plastic wrap, for up to 90 days. Thaw at room temperature for 45 minutes before filling and frosting.

What to Serve With

Sirva decorados com cobertura de buttercream, brigadeiro de colher, ganache de chocolate ou merengue tostado. Harmoniza com café com leite morno, suco natural de frutas ou chá gelado de frutas vermelhas.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did the cupcake batter get heavy and hard?

Overbeating the flour develops the gluten in the dough; mix the dry ingredients only until they are incorporated into the liquids with delicacy.

How to keep the paper mold from peeling off the cupcake?

Wait for the cupcakes to cool on a wire rack so the steam doesn't condense between the batter and the paper liner, loosening the glue.

Posso assar os cupcakes sem a forma especial de cavidades?

Não é recomendado, pois a forminha de papel sozinha se abre com o peso da massa; se não tiver forma metálica, use forminhas de silicone duplas.

Qual a melhor temperatura do forno para assar cupcakes?

Forno pré-aquecido a 180 ºC; temperaturas mais altas criam topos pontudos com rachaduras em vez do topo arredondado e plano clássico.
