There are small things that look the other way, change the life of a man, as simple cupcake, covered with a thick layer butter cream - too simple-wrapped in a way the most glamorous and decorated like a childhood dream ...
Yesterday, November 10, we celebrated the National Day of Cupcake Vanilla. Celebration cake ... but who had this brilliant idea, to bring happiness as easily in a day that could have been rather trivial? I wish I knew to thank him.
I chose a base of yogurt cake (vanilla flavored of course), cream and butter to the almond. This cupcake is eaten fresh on the day.
Enjoy!

Ingredients:
- 150 g soft butter,
- 3 / 4 teaspoon almond flavoring,
- 230 g icing sugar,
- 1 pinch of salt,
- 2 + 1 / 2 tbsp of cream.
Method:
recipent In a medium, beat butter with electric mixer at medium speed for twenty seconds.
Add vanilla, sugar and salt. Beat for about a minute, starting slowly so that the sugar does not escape the bowl.
Add cream, beat at medium speed a few seconds, then increase speed to fast and continue beating for 4 minutes, until mixture is very light. If necessary, scrape down sides of container occasionally to ensure even mixing.
In a cupcake, the hardest part is not to prepare the cake or the cream is to succeed in sublimating these two recipes very basic. For the cake, it is incumbent on the paper tray. I like using pretty boxes when decorating the cupcake is not loaded. Otherwise I prefer the simpler flats, all white, that highlight the color of cream and / or decorations. But the cream is the knack of pastry that changes everything ...
This summer, during my stay in New York City, I went to taste the cupcakes from the famous Magnolia Bakery pastry ... full-time ... They are that I like: the cake is super, super light, and the butter cream is super, super rich! A bit like Chocolate Cupcake Black . The cake of my vanilla cupcake (Yogurt), is not as sparkling, but it is very easy to make, and it pleases so my children can do themselves! The Magnolia bakery, I brought a video of "frosting maker", that is to say the person who collects the cream cupcakes. I love her so casually around her pastry chefs are busy, and prances in front of a horde febrile clients who retain their just ah! and oh! of greed! To believe that what she is doing is a breeze ... me, I have not yet succeeded to do the same.

There are other methods. This is perhaps not the easiest. This really helps to have a smooth cream, good consistency, and especially a whole bucket! We put more cream, the easier it is. Then, there is no requirement to eat all the cream. I see many Americans leave a good party. Mess? Not really a cupcake! Finally in the cream, half is to be eaten, and the other is primarily used to give her cupcake "cake cute killer look" that is to say and in one word: irresistible. Do not feel guilty if you eat that part too, we do not eat cupcakes every day ... Some people love them precisely because they offer so much of that cream cake.
