Como fazer Chocolate Beet Cupcakes With Orange Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. Peel and grate 1 cup cooked beets using the large holes of a grater.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup vegetable oil, and 2 large eggs. Beat at medium speed until well blended.
  4. Add the grated beets and beat until well incorporated.
  5. In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Fill the cupcake liners about ¾ full. Tap the muffin tin gently on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1 tablespoon orange zest, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  11. Gradually add 2 cups powdered sugar, beating on low speed until smooth and creamy.
  12. Frost the cooled cupcakes and sprinkle with chopped walnuts (optional).
  13. Store frosted cupcakes in the refrigerator.
