St. Patrick’s Day Lime White Chocolate Chips Cupcakes + Freebie
Hello, my lovely readers! St Patrick’s Day is around the corner and I thought it would be so nice to celebrate it with delicious lime and chocolate chips cupcakes with a super yummy green vanilla frosting. I mean a cupcake is good anyway anywhere LOL.
How to make Lime White Chocolate Chips Cupcakes + Freebie
This is an easy recipe that I found in a cool book but I had to change a few things so it would be as I wanted. Hope you find it as yummy as I did.
Directions
- Preheat oven to 180ºC/350ºF and line 12-hole muffin pan with cupcakes liners.
- In a small bowl mix flour, cornstarch and bicarbonate soda.
- In a stand mixer, cream the butter on medium speed until it’s very soft and creamy then add little by little the sugar and ring mix for about 5 minutes or until is fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time.
- Stir in flour mixture, juice and milk little by little until well combine. Turn off the mixer and manually mix the white chocolate chips.
- Drop 1/3 cup of mixture into liners. Bake for about 35 minutes.
- Stand about 5 min before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Making the Frosting
- Beat butter in a small bowl with a stand mixer until creamy and as white as possible, then beat in the icing sugar and milk in tow batches.
- Fill an icing bag with the frosting and set in the fridge for about 5 minutes. Don’t leave it for more than 10 minutes or the frosting won’t work well.
- When Cupcakes are cool, decorate with your icing bag and your favorite tip.
- I added a piece of lime peal to the top!
- Tadaaaaa…Serve and enjoy!
Many of you probably know I’m a lover of silhouette projects LOL, so I also made these cute cupcake wrappers to add a little bit more St Patrick’s Day fun to my cupcakes and guess what??? I’m sharing with you the cutting file so you can make them too!!! Yayyyy!
