Bloody Cupcakes Recipe By Tasty

BLOODY MARY CUPCAKES, CAYENNE PEPPER BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a regular cupcake or muffin pan with 12 cupcake liners.
• Sift the flour, baking powder, salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and cayenne pepper into a medium bowl. Set the bowl aside. In a small bowl, combine the tomato juice, 1/4 cup vodka, lemon juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Set the bowl aside. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter with the granulated sugar and horseradish sauce, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, and then add 1 egg at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition. Turn the mixer to the lowest speed and add the flour and tomato juice mixtures, alternating between the two, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined. Scrape down the sides and mix for 30 seconds.
• Fill the cupcake liners three-quarters full with batter and bake until baked through, 15 to 18 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons vodka and remaining 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Use a pastry brush to brush the vodka mixture over the warm cupcakes. Cool the cupcakes completely, about 30 minutes.
• Put the Cayenne Pepper Buttercream into a pastry bag and cut 1/2-inch off the tip. Frost the cupcakes once they are completely cool. Top with your favorite sprinkles or decoration.
• Sift the powdered sugar into a medium bowl. In the bowl of an electric stand mixer with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and celery salt together, about 1 minute. Then add the powdered sugar and milk, alternating between the two. Beat until combined. Scrape the sides of the bowl. Add the lemon juice, vanilla and cayenne pepper. Mix until combined. Then beat the mixture on high until light and fluffy, 5 to 6 minutes.

DULCE DE LECHE "BLOBBY" CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 375°F(190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners and spray with nonstick spray.
• In a large bowl, use an electric hand mixer on medium speed to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, vanilla, dulce de leche, and milk and beat until completely combined and smooth.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in 2 additions, mixing on low speed until fully incorporated.
• Divide the batter between the prepared cupcake liners, filling each a little more than halfway.
• Bake the cupcakes for 17-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, 20-30 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the frosting: In a medium bowl, use an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed to beat together the butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, and mix on low speed until fully incorporated. Add the heavy cream, vanilla, and green food coloring and whip until the frosting is smooth and evenly colored. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
• Frost each cupcake by holding the piping bag upright and piping a swirl of frosting about 1½ inches high. Place 2 candy eyes on top of each green swirl.
• Refrigerate the cupcakes until ready to serve.
• Enjoy!

BLOODY CUPCAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the edible "glass": Line a baking sheet with a nonstick mat or parchment paper.
• In a medium saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, combine the water, corn syrup, and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the temperature reaches 300°F (150°C), hard crack stage.
• Pour the candy evenly onto the prepared baking sheet and let cool at room temperature for 45-50 minutes.
• Once cooled, drop the baking sheet onto the counter a few times to break the candy into 1-2-inch "glass" shards. Dust lightly with cornstarch to prevent the pieces from sticking together.
• Make the "blood": In a small bowl, whisk together the corn syrup, cornstarch, water, red food coloring, and blue food coloring until well combined.
• Stick 2-3 pieces of "glass" into each red velvet cupcake. Drizzle the "blood" over the top.
• Enjoy!

BLOODY BROKEN GLASS CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2, 12-cupcake tins with paper cupcake liners.
• Blend cake mix, 1 cup water, vegetable oil, and eggs in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer on low speed for 2 minutes. Divide cake batter between lined cupcake tins.
• Bake cupcakes in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool completely. Frost cupcakes with white frosting.
• Make the sugar glass. Mix 2 cups water, 1 cup corn syrup, white sugar, and cream of tartar in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Use a candy thermometer and boil sugar syrup until temperature reaches 300 degrees (hard ball), stirring constantly. The mixture will thicken as water evaporates. When sugar reaches 300 degrees, quickly pour onto a metal baking pan. Cool until completely hardened. Break into "shards" using a meat mallet.
• Make the edible blood. Mix together 1/2 cup corn syrup and cornstarch in a large bowl. Slowly stir in the 1/4 cup of water, adding more if necessary, until the corn syrup mixture has thickened to the consistency of blood. Stir in the red and blue food coloring.
• Stab each frosted cupcake with a few shards of broken sugar glass. Drizzle on drops of "blood" to complete the effect.
