How to make quick chocolate cupcakes – tips
Prepare a pot and all ingredients.
In the pot, melt the butter and add chopped chocolate to the hot butter. Stir until the chocolate melts and forms a uniform chocolate glaze with the butter.
Then add cherry preserve to it – it will give the cupcakes an extraordinary flavor and add moisture. You can use homemade cherry preserve or a store-bought one.
For my chocolate cupcakes, I added a whole jar of Stovit cherry preserve, which is why I used very little sugar. I prefer my baked goods less sweet, and this amount of sweetness was just right for me. However, if you prefer sweeter baked goods, you can use more sugar.
Pour the sugar, flour, and baking powder directly into the pot with the chocolate mixture and mix everything with a spoon.
It’s best to add the eggs at the end so that the chocolate mixture isn’t too hot for them. Add them one by one and vigorously mix the chocolate mixture after each addition.
Bake the cupcakes in paper liners or cupcake molds. After baking, let them cool and, if you wish, drizzle with melted chocolate.
How to make chocolate glaze for cupcakes?
Heat some heavy cream in a saucepan and when it’s very warm, add broken chocolate. I used milk chocolate here.
With milk chocolate glaze, the cupcakes were perfectly sweet for me. You can also use dark or semi-sweet chocolate. In that case, add a little more cream, because these chocolates are thicker after melting.
You can also put some cherry preserve on top before serving – it will be even more delicious :)
