Lemon cupcakes

Osvežilno. Poletno. Sočno.

Pecivo za fantov rojstni dan- limonine tortice. Veliko torto je naredila fantova sestra, jaz pa seveda nisem mogla iti praznih rok zato sem naredila tele tortice. Namen tortic je bil predvsem v njihovi številki- 25 sem jih naredila kolikor je bil star. Prav tako sem si zamislila, da jih postavim v obliki številke 25, tako da je končni rezultat izgledal nekako takole (aja številke so bele ;) :

Pecivo se lahko naredi v modelčkih za mafine ali pa na velikem pekaču. Za testo potrebujete:

- 125g masla

- 180g sladkorja

- 2 jajci

- 1 dcl mleka

- 200g moke

- 1 pecilni prašek

- sok in lupina ene limone

Vse kar je treba narediti je zmešati sestavine skupaj. Pazimo samo na jajca; rumenjake vmešamo v testo, iz beljakov pa naredimo sneg in ga dodamo malo pred peko. Pečico nastavimo na 180 stopinj, maso vlijemo v modelčke za mafine in hop v pečico. Mafine pečemo dokler se lepo ne obarvajo nekje 20 minut. Medtem pa lahko začnemo s pripravo kreme.

Krema:

- 100g sirnega namaza

- 125g mascarpone sira

- 2dcl sladke smetane

- 50g sladkorja v prahu in

- 1 vanilij sladkor

- 1 kremfix

Vse razen sladke smetane in kremfixa dobro zmešamo. Smetano posebej stepemo, ji dodamo kremfix in, ko je čvrsta, dodamo kremi. Jaz sem v polovičko dodala še kakav za rjavkasto kremo.

Ko so mafini pečeni jih dekoriramo s kremo in damo na hladno dokler jih ne serviramo. Moji so preživeli polurno vožnjo z avtom v hudi vročini in so (hvala bogu) ostali čisto nespremenjeni  ;)

Refreshing. For summer. Juicy.

Cakes for boyfriends birthday- lemon cupcakes. Boyfriends sister was responsible for big cake and I made 25 small cakes. The purpose of cakes was in their number- 25 cakes for 25s birthday. I also made a decoration in number 25 so the end result looked something like on the first picture (the numbers are white).

You can make dough in form for muffins on in a large baking tray. For the dough you will need:

- 125g butter

- 180g sugar

- 2 eggs

- 1 dl milk

- 200g flour

- 1 baking powder

- The juice and zest of one lemon

All you have to do is to mix all ingredients together. Be careful only with eggs to mix yorks into the dough. From whites make snow and add to mass just before baking. Give the oven at 180 degrees and pour the mass into muffin molds and let´s go in the oven. Bake muffins until they nicely colored for somewhere 20 minutes. In the meantime you can begin with the preparation of cream.

Cream:

- 100g cream cheese

- 125g mascarpone cheese

- 2dl sweet cream

- 50g powdered sugar 

- 1 vanilla sugar

- 1 creamfix

Mix all ingredients together except sweet cream and creamfix. Mix the sweet cream, add creamfix and give to the other cream. I added in a half cocoa to have a brown cream.

When the muffins are baked decorate them with cream and put in the cold until they are served. Mine survived a half-hour drive with car in extreme heat and were left completely unchanged ;)
