Mocca Cupcakes With Dried Fruit
Ingredients
50 grams flour
1 teaspoon dry yeast
50 grams cornstarch
100 grams butter at room temperature
100 grams sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup strong black coffee, cold
1/2 cup dried figs, cut into pieces
8 dates, sliced into pieces
1/2 cup hazelnuts, coarsely chopped
Butter for greasing baking molds
Preparation
1
Grease muffin molds with melted butter or use paper or silicone "hats" (I did not have enough silicone ones, so I used paper cups as well).
3
Beat butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.
4
Add egg and beat some more until well combined.
6
Add coffee, mix until smooth and creamy.
7
Add figs, dates and nuts and stir gently.
8
Fill half of each muffin cups with the mixture (or, if you want fewer cakes, fill each cup to the full).
9
Bake little cakes in oven for about 25 minutes at 180ºC or until they are done (the trick with a toothpick!).
