MILK TART CUPCAKES
I use the Golden Cloud Vanilla cake mix and bake the cupcakes as per box. Let them cool.
- For the milktart:
- 1 tin condensed milk
- 2 ½ cups milk
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 4 eggs
- 3 tablespoons custard powder
- 3 tablespoons Maizena
- pinch of salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
Put all ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and mix well.
Microwave on high for 7 minutes. Remove bowl from microwave and mix well with an electric mixer.
Put back in microwave and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Again remove bowl and mix with an electric mixer until smooth. Return to microwave and microwave for a last 3 minutes on high.
Remove and mix with electric mixer until smooth.
Put a layer or cling wrap directly on the mixture so not to allow a skin to form and let the mixture cool a little, about 15 min.
Cut out a hole from the centre of prepared cupcakes. Put milktart mix in a piping bag with a large nozzle and pipe onto cupcakes firstly filling the hole in the centre. Dust with cinnamon and let set.
Note:
These tasted even better the next day. I didn’t keep them in the fridge. Yet again they didn’t last very long!!
