White Cupcakes With Marshmallow Frosting Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
• Beat white sugar and 1 cup butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix peppermint extract, almond extract, and food coloring into creamed butter mixture.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Mix flour mixture, alternating with 3/4 cup milk, into creamed butter mixture, ending with flour mixture, until batter is just combined. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe glass or ceramic bowl in 15-second intervals, stirring after each melting, 1 to 3 minutes. Allow melted white chocolate to cool to room temperature.
• Mix marshmallow fluff and 1/2 cup butter together in a bowl until smooth. Stir melted white chocolate into marshmallow mixture. Add confectioners sugar, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, to marshmallow mixture until fully incorporated; add enough milk to reach desired consistency.

Steps:

• For the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking soda, nutmeg and salt together in a medium bowl.
• Beat the butter and sugar together in a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time and then the vanilla, beating until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low and beat in half the flour mixture until just combined. Then add the sour cream, and then the rest of the flour. Beat until well combined, taking care not to over mix. Stir in the chopped apples.
• Divide the batter between prepared muffin tin, filling them 1/2 way full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops spring back when pressed gently, about 20 minutes. Cool the cupcakes in the tin on a rack for 10 minutes then remove and cool completely on the rack.
• For the frosting: Beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 5 to 7 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. Add the marshmallow cream, milk, vanilla and salt and beat on low speed until blended. Increase the mixer speed to high and beat until fluffy and thick, 1 to 2 minutes. Pipe or spread the frosting on the tops of the cupcakes.

Steps:

• Place egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in the heatproof bowl of an electric mixer. Set over a saucepan with simmering water. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and whites are warm to the touch, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer bowl to electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat, starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high, until stiff, glossy peaks form, 5 to 7 minutes. Add vanilla, and mix until combined. Use immediately.

• Scoop batter into prepared cupcake pan and bake in preheated oven until tops spring back when touched lightly with a finger and a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on rack.
• To make frosting, combine white sugar, cream of tartar, a pinch of salt, egg whites, and cold water in a heatproof mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is very hot to the touch and stiff peaks have formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and beat 1 minute more. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and marshmallow creme and beat until combined.
• To frost the cupcakes, fill a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip with frosting; pipe mini marshmallow-shaped dots all over the cupcakes. Alternatively, use a knife and frost them generously with lots of swoops and swirls.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Arrange 3 or 4 cupcakes on a baking sheet and place them in the oven under the broiler. Toast until the frosting has started to brown, about 90 seconds (check every 20 seconds and rearrange the baking sheet, if necessary). Repeat with the remaining cupcakes until all are toasted.
