Let's say "HELLO" to another Homemade Cupcakes!
I've been searching for Maltesers for so long, but I couldn't find it. Anywhere. But yesterday, thank God I finally found it in a larger supermarket here in Heidelberg! Yaay!! So, if any of you haven't heard or taste it before, Maltesers is one kind of chocolate (similar product to Whoppers) which are made in two stages. The inner crunchy part is made by making small pellets of a dough like mixture. The pellets are then coated with milk chocolate and polished. It's super duper yummy! I've found many bakers all over the world are also a BIG FAN of Maltesers and they baked so many desserts using Maltesers as well.

Today, as a collaboration project with Klara Form from Sweden, I'm baking these scrumptious Maltesers Peanut Butter Cupcakes!. Peanut butter lovers can double their pleasure with this treat!.
Firstly to say, I'm soo happy to get sponsored by Klara Form to do this post. They are an online baking shop which based in Sweden. They sent me their lovely rainbow baking cups and also pink-heart cupcake toppers! Honestly I'm sooo in love with them... They're so cute and colourful. If you're looking for lovely and adorable baking goodies, it's best to check out their website at klaraform.se! You can find many more inspirations and ideas. :)))
how adorable are these stuffs! thank you! :) |
So, here's my Maltesers Peanut Butter Cupcakes using their lovely baking products... And the pink plate was from my one and only little sister! She has always been the sweetest - sent it all the way from Indonesia - together with many other surprises as my birthday present last February.
These cupcakes are so yummy, the texture is moist, they have a good peanut butter flavour - especially by the frosting! Besides that, the peanut butter frosting is so creamy and not over-powering! And even at last, the Maltesers is one important thing which gave you that chocolatey flavour and crunchiness! :)
If you are a peanut butter lover, or chocolate lover, or cupcake lover, whatever it called... Go make this to sweeten your day! Baking cupcakes is always a fun thing to do, so does making frosting. Here's the recipe to follow!
Making 9-10 cupcakes.
For the vanilla peanut butter cupcakes:
Ingredients:
113 grams unsalted butter, room temperature
130 grams granulated white sugar
3 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
196 grams all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
60 ml milk
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (we don't want it too much because we still gonna make a peanut butter frosting!).
Directions:
1). Preheat oven to 350 degrees (177 degrees C) and line 9-10 baking cups with paper liners.
2). In the bowl of an electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well until each addition. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in thr vanilla extract.
3). In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
4). With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and milk, in three additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Add the peanut butter, mix until well combined.
5). Fill the muffin cups with the batter and bake for about 20 minutes or just until set and a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean. Remember to not over bake or the cupcakes will be dry.
6). Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
For the peanut butter frosting and assembling:
Ingredients:
1 cup (226 grams) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
4 cup (500 grams) confectioner or icing sugar
1/4 cup milk
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cup creamy peanut butter
+/- 40 grams Maltesers
Directions:
1). After the cupcakes are completely cool, we can start with the frosting. In a large bowl, using a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer, beat the butter and peanut butter together.
2). Add half of the icing sugar, blend them until smooth.
3). Then add milk and vanilla extract, and gradually add the remaining icing sugar. Stir them until well blended.
4). Spoon the frosting into a piping bag and decorate the cupcakes.
5). After the cupcakes are all covered with frosting, top them with Maltesers. I put three on top of each cupcake. (You can add more or less, it's all optional!).
6). At last, I inserted the cupcake toppers for an even cuter decoration.
