Cómo preparar Florentine Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-hole, 2-tablespoon capacity flat-based muffin tin with paper cases.
- Cream together 125g softened butter and 150g caster sugar using an electric mixer until pale and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 175g plain flour and 1 tsp baking powder. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, gently folding until just combined.
- Stir in 50ml of thickened cream.
- Fill each paper case two-thirds full with the batter and smooth the tops.
- For the Florentine topping: Combine 50g softened butter, 75g brown sugar, and 2 tbsp thickened cream in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on high for 1 minute, or until smooth and melted, stirring halfway through.
- Stir in 50g plain flour, 50g sliced almonds, 50g chopped dried apricots, and 50g chopped dried cherries.
- Spoon the topping evenly over the cupcakes.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely in the tin before transferring them to a serving plate.
- Melt 100g dark chocolate. Transfer to a piping bag or zip-top bag fitted with a small corner cut off.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cupcakes and serve.
