Strawberry Cheese cake cupcakes

Having friends over is a great excuse to cook up a little storm, and these little cupcakes from the Humming bird are wonderfully indulgent and fresh.  I have to say i wasn't disappointed at all they look and taste just like cheese cake cupcakes should do and were delicious.

Recipe This make 9 cakes

120g plane flour
140g Caster sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
pinch of salt
40g butter
120ml whole milk
1/2 tsp vanilla bean paste
1 egg
12 large strawberries
100g-200g digestive biscuits

Pre heat the over to 170c

Cream cheese frosting
300g icing sugar
50g unsalted butter
125g cream cheese

Beat the sugar and butter together till well mixed, and the cream cheese and well mix again on a high speed for 5 mins.  do not over beat as this can become runny.

  • Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and butter slowly until combined.
  • Pour in the milk and vanilla still mixing then add the egg
  • Cut and divide the strawberries between the cases and spoon the cake mix on top till 2/3 full and bake for 20 - 25 mins
  • Blend up the digestives till crumbed
  • Once the cakes are cooled spoon the frosting onto the cakes and press on the digestives to finish.
