Ingredients
  

  • 125 g mascarpone cheese
  • 50 g melted butter
  • 200 g regular granulated sugar
  • 50 ml oil
  • 30 g vanilla sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 egg white
  • 290 g cake flour
  • 12 g baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tbsps strawberry jam
  • strawberry jam on top
Vanilla Frosting
  • 140 g butter room temp
  • 250 g icing sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 210℃. Prepare a cupcake tin.
  2. In a bowl whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl whip the mascarpone with oil, butter, and vanilla extract. Until they're well combined. Pour the mixture into the flour mix.
  4. Add the rest of the ingredients and whisk with an egg white whisker until the flour disappears. Let the batter rest for 15-30 minutes.
  5. Scoop batter into the muffin tin until it's full. Add a teaspoon of strawberry jam on top and move around using a toothpick.
  6. Bake for 5 minutes, then decrease the temperature to 180℃ and bake for another 8-12 minutes - until the toothpick comes out clean.
  7. Take the muffin tin out of the oven and let rest for another 8 minutes. Take the muffins out and let cool completely.
Vanilla frosting
  1. Whip the butter with icing sugar and vanilla extract until creamy. If the consistency is too thick for you, add a splash of milk.
  2. Put on top of the muffin with a slice of fresh strawberry.
