Mango Cupcakes With Mango Filling Recipes

MANGO CUPCAKES WITH MANGO FILLING

Steps:

• To make the mango filling, combine all of the ingredients in a saucepan and simmer until the mangoes are soft.
• Let cool before blending in a blender (I used an immersion blender) until smooth. Place in fridge to cool.
• Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Prepare a 12 hole regular sized cupcake tin by lining with liners.
• Add lemon juice into the milk, stir and set aside for 5 minutes until thickened.
• Combine the softened butter, oil, salt, and sugar in a stand mixer or a large bowl with electric beaters. Beat with wire beaters until very light and increases in volume.
• Add eggs one by one, beating in between each addition. Add the vanilla. Beat until it gets a little lighter in colour and increases in volume.
• Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl and add the milk and lemon mixture. Fold just until it forms a batter.
• Distribute evenly into prepared cupcake tin and bake for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
• Beat softened butter and salt with an electric mixer until it lightens in colour and volume, about 5 minutes.
• Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk into the butter in 3 additions, beating really well in between each addition. Add vanilla and beat for about 5 minutes until silky smooth.
• Transfer into a piping bag with your favourite piping tip or just with the end cut off.
• Using a small knife, cut the middle out of the cupcake, setting it aside. Fill the cupcake with the mango filling and place the cut out piece of cupcake on top, closing the top off.
• Pipe a ring of frosting on top of the cupcake. For an extra tall cupcake pipe two rings one on top of the other.
• Fill the ring middles with more mango puree and serve!

MANGO FILLED COCONUT CUPCAKES WITH MANGO BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• To make cupcakes, preheat oven to 350F and line 24 muffin cups with liners.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and ground coconut in a mixing bowl and set aside.
• In a measuring cup combine coconut milk, oil and vanilla extract, set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs, one at a time to the butter/sugar mixture, beating well after each addition.
• Add flour mixture and milk mixture in alternating batches, beginning and ending with the flour mixture and beat until combined.
• Spoon batter into cupcake liners and bake for 20 minutes or until golden and toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
• While the cupcakes are baking prepare the filling.
• In a mixing bowl beat cream until whipped cream is formed, about 7 minutes.
• Mix in the finely chopped mango and set aside.
• While cupcakes are cooling, make mango buttercream.
• In a mixing bowl cream together mango and butter.
• Add powdered sugar slowly until everything is incorporated and smooth (add more powdered sugar if necessary to achieve the consistency desired) and set aside.
• Once cupcakes are completely cooled, make a hole in the center of each cupcake using a plunger (an apple corer works wonders too!) reserving tops.
• Pipe in mango cream to the center of each cupcake and return top to cupcake.
