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 :)

You must try the recipe for these cherry-chocolate cupcakes and let me know how you liked them!

Chocolate cupcakes with cherries recipe

Prepare with me very simple and quick chocolate cupcakes with chocolate glaze and cherries. Prepare these spoon-mixed cupcakes without using a mixer. For this, you only need a pot in which you will prepare the cupcake batter. The pot is essential because you melt butter and chocolate in it - somewhat similar to murzynek and then add the remaining ingredients to them. All ingredients are very basic and generally available at home. So we have butter, dark chocolate, cherry preserve or jam, sugar, flour, and eggs. The entire preparation of chocolate cupcakes will not take you more than half an hour. You must try them!
