Chocolate Cupcake with Brandy

At the moment I am really keen on chocolate cupcake recipes. This recipe uses the basic chocolate cupcake recipe for the sponge. I then cut the top off the cupcakes keeping the knife level with the top of the cupcake case and pointing the knife towards the centre of the cake and downwards. I then filled the cupcake with Brandy butter cream.

I use;
3 oz--75gm of butter(unsalted) or benecol if you are trying to reduce cholesterol
6oz--175gm of icing sugar(confectioners sugar)
2 tablespoons of cocoa powder
1 teaspoon brandy
I cream all ingredients together and add the brandy last.I put the butter cream inside. If you want it to be really tasty put 1 teaspoon of Brandy onto the base sponge of the cut cupcake. I then spread more butter cream onto the top of the cupcake. I top off with white chocolate sprinkles.
I also serve with a Belgian chocolate biscuit.
Thanks for reading. Check out the labels for more of my ideas and recipes.
