Angel Food Cupcakes.

These adorable Angel Food Cupcakes are wonderfully soft, fluffy, and lightly sweet! Each cupcake consists of a light and spongey angel food cupcake, topped with a dollop of sweetened chantilly cream, and raspberries and blueberries, to make for the sweetest treat for almost any occasion!

We love these cupcakes, because they are so Summery with the fresh berries and whipped cream on top! They are a light treat, making them perfect for any Summer day. 

Since the 4th of July is coming up soon, these cupcakes would be great for that! With the white from the cupcake, and red and blue from the berries.

Ingredients:

Sugar: Use granulated sugar. In this recipe, you will pulse the sugar to be more fine.

Cake Flour: Be sure to use cake flour! Or, if you don’t have cake flour, just measure out 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, take out 1 Tbsp. and replace it with 1 Tbsp. cornstarch. Just use that instead and it will also work!

Salt: Salt balances out the sweetness in the cupcakes, and adds a depth of flavor!

Egg Whites: Make sure when you separate the eggs, that no part of the yolk gets into the egg white.

Cream of Tartar: The cream of tartar helps thicken the egg whites while beating.

Water: This recipe uses just 1 Tbsp. of water. Make sure the water is warm!

The lightly sweetened whipped cream and berries on top pair perfectly with the cupcakes, but some other toppings you could use are different berries like strawberries or blackberries, or you can also top these with some lemon curd or strawberry sauce!

Description

These adorable Angel Food Cupcakes are wonderfully soft, fluffy, and lightly sweet! Each cupcake consists of a light and spongey angel food cupcake, topped with a dollop of sweetened chantilly cream, and raspberries and blueberries, to make for the sweetest treat for almost any occasion!


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Angel Food Cupcakes:

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup cake flour

1/8 tsp. salt

6 egg whites, room temp.

1 Tbsp. warm water

3/4 tsp. cream of tartar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

For the Whipped Cream:

1 + 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream

1/3 cup powdered sugar


Instructions

1. To a food processor or blender, add in 3/4 cup granulated sugar, and pulse until the sugar is fine. Remove about 1/2 cup of the sugar and save for later. Now to the food processor, add in 1/2 cup cake flour and 1/8 tsp. salt. Pulse that a few times until combined.

2. To a separate bowl, add in 6 egg whites, 1 Tbsp. warm water and 3/4 tsp. cream of tartar. Beat that with a hand mixer for about 5 minutes, until the egg whites are thick. Next, slowly add in the remaining sugar, while beating on low. Beat that for another 5 minutes, until thick and glossy. Now, fold in 1 tsp. vanilla extract.

3. Sift in the flour mixture (in about four additions), and fold until combined. Don’t over-mix! Now, with a cookie scoop, spoon the batter into a lined muffin pan. Bake the cupcakes in a preheated oven at 325 F, for about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

4. Let the cupcakes cool completely, while making the whipped cream for topping. Beat together 1 + 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream and 1/3 cups powdered sugar, until stiff peaks.

5. Once the cupcakes are cooled, frost them with the whipped cream and blueberries and raspberries. Enjoy!
