Recipe for Easter cake
Prepare the treats
preparation: Freeze a cupcake with a fluffy topping. Press a circle from the coconut grass on top. Do the painted eggs on the grass. Gently push the chick onto the center of the grass.
Cut the white airhead into a 1/2 oval shape; Cut one side so that it is a cracked egg with a jagged edge. Put the egg next to the chick.
Vanilla cupcakes:
Ingredients: 2 2/3 cups sugar, 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter cut into 1 inch pieces, 2 large eggs, 2 large egg yolks, 2/3 cup milk, 2/3 cup water, 2 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract, 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 1/3 cups cake flour, 4 teaspoons of baking powder.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Use parchment paper to avoid overflowing the batter. This is why you also spray the baking sheet with oil, but sparingly. Place the shapes on the sheet. Set aside.
Mix the sugar and butter in a food processor until very creamy – 1 to 2 minutes. Add the eggs and yolks and stir well. Add the milk, water and vanilla.
Mix the two types of flour together with the baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones in 3 steps, stirring well until a smooth dough is formed – 2 minutes.
Fill the molds with this batter (¾ of each mold). Bake for 18-25 minutes, until the cakes are golden brown. Cool them well before freezing them.
