👨🍳 制作步骤
CUPCAKES: Heat oven to 350F
Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners
In large bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt
In medium bowl whisk egg, oil, sugars, flavorings and coffee
Stir wet ingredients into dry ingredients using a spoon or spatula
Batter will be somewhat lumpy -- do not over mix it to make it smooth
Using an ice cream scoop (1/4 cup), fill paper liners
Bake about 16 minutes, or till a toothpick inserted near center returns with just a few crumbs
Cool in pan 5 minutes, then turn cupcakes out onto wire rack to completely cool
PEANUT-BUTTER FILLING: In small bowl, combine all ingredients
Core cooled cupcakes with a Cuisipro or other hollowing device, and fill cavity with peanut butter filling
Eat the cupcake pieces you cored; sandwich two with some peanut butter filling and marshmallow frosting
MARSHMALLOW FROSTING: In a small saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, bring water, corn syrup and 1/3 cup plus 1 Tbsp
sugar to a rolling boil on high heat, brushing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush
Do not stir mixture, as it will cause it to crystallize
Boil until mixture reaches 242F, or soft-ball stage
In the meantime, a few minutes after the sugar mixture comes to a boil, in a completely clean, dry mixing bowl
Using regular beaters on medium-high speed whip egg whites, vanilla powder or extract, salt and cream of tartar until creamy and foamy, about 2 minutes
With mixer still on, sprinkle the remaining 1 Tbsp
of sugar over the whites and continue beating until whites hold very soft peaks, another 2 minutes
When syrup has reached 242F, reduce mixer speed to low
Find the sweet spot (between the sides of the bowl and the beaters) and very, very slowly and carefully drizzle in the hot syrup
After all syrup has been added, turn mixer to high and beat till thick, fluffy and just barely warm, about 7 minutes
Fit a 16" piping bag with a 1M Wilton tip; spoon frosting into bag and pipe onto cupcakes making high mounds of frosting
GARNISHES: Place chocolate into one bottom corner of a resealable plastic bag
Microwave on high about 30 seconds
Continue microwaving on high at 10-second intervals until chocolate is melted
Very carefully cut the tiniest corner to make a very small hole through which the chocolate may be drizzled onto the frosting
Lightly sprinkle peanuts over cupcakes
TIME-SAVING TIPS: Instead of making peanut butter filling, just use Peanut Butter & Co
's White Chocolate Wonderful Peanut Butter
If you're not lactose intolerant, you could use a cake mix for the cupcakes, but you will have to double the other ingredients
