How to Make Turkish Delight Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
- Grease and flour a 12-hole standard muffin tin or line with paper cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together 170g (1 1/2 sticks) softened butter and 200g granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 3 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 tablespoons of rose water and 120ml (1/2 cup) sour cream.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 200g (1 3/4 cups) all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1/2 tsp baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
- Press a small piece (about 1cm cube) of Turkish Delight into the center of each cupcake.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes for standard cupcakes, or 15 minutes for mini cupcakes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, you can frost with your favorite frosting, or simply dust with powdered sugar for a delicate finish. Enjoy!
