Blackberry Cupcakes Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 170°C (160C fan). Line 12-hole muffin tin with cupcake liners and set aside.

Step 2

In a bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter, sugar and Lyle’s golden syrup until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Gradually, add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add milk and vanilla and mix again to combine.

Step 4

Fold in the flour, and stir until well combined.

Step 5

Divide the mixture between the cupcake cases, filling each case no more than 2/3 full.

Step 6

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until cupcakes are golden brown and toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow the cupcakes to cool for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Step 7

To make the blackberry icing, place the blackberries into a bowl and mash well with a fork or the back of a spoon. Push the mixture through the sieve, collecting the juices and discarding the leftover pulp.

Step 8

Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and icing sugar together, until smooth and creamy. Pour in the blackberry juice and mix again to combine. Transfer the icing into a piping bag fitted with decorative nozzle and pipe on top of each cupcake. Decorate each cupcake with a fresh blackberry. Enjoy!
