I made these last night. It makes 24 and well... I have 3 left.
Now; you could make this A LOT easier then I did and get a store bought chocolate cake mix. (Which is what I planned on doing but then decided these were to EPIC for cake mix) You could actually get an already frosting too.
This is my food blog. Therefore.. this is what I used.
FIRST: GET FOUR THINGS OF CADBURY EGGS. THE MINI ONES. 12 IN A CONTAINER. FREEZE TWO CONTAINERS OVER NIGHT.
NEXT: Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
You will also need cupcake liners (obviously).
Then for the cake mix:
2 cups sugar
1 3/4 cups flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup boiling water
This recipe seems kind of odd to most with the boiling water. But I PROMISE these are moist and delicious.
Add all the dry ingredients together. Then add everything EXCEPT the boiling water. I usually bring the water to boil while I'm adding everything together. Now this right here without the water looks like a great cake mix (and taste like it too). Add the water and mix more. Don't worry it's supposed to be thin, it's okay
Next like every other recipe pour the batter in the cupcakes. 2/3 full.
Drop in a frozen cadbury egg into each batter and make sure it's covered by batter. (I usually just use my spatula and swirl it around.
(Frozen cadbury eggs don't melt into your cupcakes.)
Cook for 22 minutes.
While they cook start the frosting. (Unless you using premade then just... let them cool)
I used a simple buttercream.
Take a bit of the frosting out in a different bowl and dye it yellow.
Pipe the white buttercream on then yellow in the center. (to look like an egg)
Then top with a cadbury egg.
