INFINITY STONE CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY



Infinity Stone Cupcakes Recipe by Tasty image

These stone-shaped candies may take a bit of patience to make, but they are totally worth it and super customizable. We put them on top of cupcakes, but they also make great decorations for cakes and cookies. Have fun playing with color combinations, too!

Time 5h30m

Yield 18 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

¼ cup cold water
1 tablespoon gelatin powder, plus 1 1/2 tsp
½ cup water, room temperature
1 ½ cups sugar
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
red liquid food coloring
1 tablespoon blue liquid food coloring
green liquid food coloring
yellow liquid food coloring
18 vanilla cupcakes
2 cups vanilla frosting
edible gold dust, for sprinkling
piping bag
5/8 inch round tip

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the cold water and gelatin. Let the gelatin bloom for 5 minutes, until the water is mostly absorbed. Microwave for 20-30 seconds, or until the gelatin is melted.
  • Combine the room temperature water and sugar in a medium pot. Bring to a low boil over medium-low heat.
  • Pour the gelatin mixture into the boiling sugar water, whisking constantly to combine. Cook at a low boil for 5 minutes, until the sugar and gelatin are completely dissolved.
  • Transfer the gelatin mixture to a 2-cup (480 ml) liquid measuring cup for easy pouring. Let sit for 5 minutes to cool slightly. Skim off any foam that rises to the top.
  • Grease 6 cups of a muffin tin with nonstick spray.
  • Evenly divide the gelatin mixture between the 6 greased cups of the muffin tin, about ¼ cup (30 grams) per section.
  • Use the liquid food coloring to dye each section: For red, add 3 drops of red. For green, add 3 drops of green. For purple, add 1 drop of red and 1 drop of blue. For blue, add 4 drops of blue. For orange, add 1 drop of red and 3 drops of yellow. For yellow, add 4 drops of yellow. Using a toothpick or clean fork, stir each section to combine.
  • Carefully transfer the muffin tin to the refrigerator. Chill the gelatin until set, at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease with nonstick spray.
  • Remove each gelatin cup and tear into ¾-inch (2 cm) square chunks, to resemble stones. Spread evenly on the prepared baking sheet, keeping each color separate. Let dry at room temperature for 2-3 days, until the outer layer becomes hard to the touch with a matte exterior. Note: If you want to use a cover to keep debris out, place in a baking dish and cover with plastic wrap with the corner left open so they can dry out but the plastic is not touching the stones.
  • When ready to assemble the cupcakes, add the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a ⅝-inch (1 ½ cm) round tip or a plastic zip-top bag with the corner cut off. Pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes.
  • Using a fine-mesh sieve, lightly sprinkle edible gold luster dust over the frosted cupcakes.
  • Place 2-3 colored stones on top of each cupcake.
  • Enjoy!

Chocolate Snack Cupcakes Recipe by Tasty image

Categories     Bakery Goods

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ cup cocoa powder
¾ teaspoon baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups sugar
½ cup warm water
1 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup marshmallow cream
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
⅔ cup heavy cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into a large bowl. Add the sugar and whisk to combine.
  • Add the warm water, buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla and whisk until combined.
  • Line 2 muffin tins with paper liners.
  • Scoop the batter into prepared muffin tins, filling each cup a little more than halfway.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes, until the tops of the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed. Let cool completely.
  • Make the marshmallow filling: In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form. Add the marshmallow cream and whip until stiff.
  • Transfer the filling to a piping bag fitted with a medium round tip or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Use the end of a whisk or another utensil to push down the center of each cupcake.
  • Pipe the filling into the cupcakes, leveling off the tops if needed. Freeze for 15 minutes while you make the ganache and icing.
  • Make the ganache: Add the chocolate chips and heavy cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second increments, until melted. Mix together until smooth.
  • Make the icing: In a medium bowl, stir together the powdered sugar and milk until smooth. The icing should fall off the spatula in ribbons. If it is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar.
  • Transfer the icing to a piping bag fitted with a small tip or a zip-top bag with a corner snipped off.
  • Dip the top of each cupcake in the ganache, then set aside to dry for 10 minutes.
  • Pipe icing curls across the center of the cupcakes and let dry for 15 minutes at room temperature.
  • Enjoy!
