Hello everyone! I’m totally in cupcakes and cookie mood lately so I made these super cute and yummy white chocolate almond cupcakes with Cadbury Creme Eggs on top =D to celebrate Easter. Delicious right?. Isn’t it fun to celebrate seasons with delicious recipes? Remember my St. Patrick’s Day Lime Chocolate Chips Cupcakes? That was as fun to make as these ones!
Almond Cupcakes with White Chocolate Frosting and Cadbury Creme Egg Topping + Free Cupcakes Toppers Printable
Teaming with my brother we came up with this idea of making almond white chocolate cupcakes in which actually the frosting is made with white chocolate and the cake with Almond Yummmm!. He loves Cadbury Crème Eggs so we add them too =D. My girl and my brother are huge fans of cupcakes so I’ve been cupcakeaholic lately LOL. I want to get better at baking them and decorating them so for that reason I’ll be making a lot of different cupcakes.
Ingredients:
Cake:
- All-purpose flour
- Baking powder
- Butter at room temperature.
- Vanilla extract
- Almond extract/essence.
- Sliced almonds
- Caster sugar
- Eggs
- Sour cream
Frosting
- Butter at room temperature
- Icing sugar
- White chocolate chips
- Whole Milk
- Cadbury Crème Eggs
- Sprinkles {Optional}
Directions:
Pre-heat the oven to 350ºF {180ºC} and line muffin pan with cupcake liners. I used these cute Easter patterned I got from Wholeport {sadly they closed their store}.
Cream the butter on medium speed until it’s very soft and creamy then add little by little the sugar for about 5 minutes.
I a small bowl mix the flour, baking powder.
Start adding to the butter mixture, without turning off the mixer, the vanilla extract and the almond essence. Wait about one minute and add the eggs one at a time {including the yolks}.
Then little by little add the flour mixture to the batter and the sour cream. Mix for a couple more minutes and for the last add the almonds. Turn off the mixer.
Divide evenly the batter for 10 cupcakes and cook for about 20 minutes. To make sure insert a toothpick in the middle 5 min before and if it comes clean it’s done.
Wait a few minutes and place the cupcakes in a cooling rack. Let them cool completely.
Frosting
Melt the white chocolate on bain marie with 1 tbs of butter. When melted mix well and let it cool.
In a stand mixer with a whisk whip the butter for about 5 minutes over medium high speed scrap the bowl once or twice during that time. Add little by little the powder sugar on slow speed. Once it’s all incorporated, scrap the sides and add the milk and white chocolate whipping again on medium high speed again for 1-2 minutes.
I also made some cute cupcake toppers to add some extra Easter looks and you can get the Free Printable Cupcake Toppers HERE.
Decorate your cupcakes and place 1 or 2 Cadbury Crème Eggs on top and some sprinkles if you want to add some cute colors!
Serve and enjoy!

I saw the word Cadbury’s and I just had to check out your post. I love anything Cadbury’s, but looking at your cupcakes, I reacon they would be just as good without the Cadbury’s creme egg on the top! I am not usually a fan of frosting, but your white chocolate frosting sounds good too.
You’re little helper looks like she is enjoying them, which is always a good sign!
Thanks so much for stopping by and putting a smile on my face! I’m glad you liked this and if you are a fan of Cadbury’s then you probably are going to love my Choco Caramel and Kahlua Brownies! The brownie is stuffed with Cadbury Caramilk, one of my favorite chocolates ever!… LOL
Mi girl’s was crazy about the frosting even dough she’s not very into sweets! I guess that one turned out really yummy LOL!
