Cake Fridays



If you are a fan of creme brulee, these are the cupcakes for you!  We made these for my mom's birthday last March and she loved them, actually we all did :)  I would definitely make these again for her birthday this year.  They are that good! 

Crème Brulee Cupcakes

2 ½ C flour
3 t baking powder
½ t salt, plus a pinch for the egg whites
1 stick butter, softened
1 ½ C sugar
2 eggs, separated
1 C milk
3 T jarred caramel sauce
1 t vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together and set aside.  Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.  Add egg yolks, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.  Alternately beat in dry ingredients and milk.  Add caramel syrup and vanilla.  Beat until smooth.  Beat egg whites with a pinch of salt until stuff but not dry.  Gently fold whites into batter.  Spoon batter into cupcake papers, filling cups about 2/3 full.  Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.  Remove from oven and cool.  Top with any frosting you'd like!
