Blueberry Cake Cups Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Sift 2 1/2 cups flour, 1 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Add milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract; mix into a semi-thick batter.
• Toss blueberries with about 2 teaspoons flour in a separate bowl; fold into batter. Pour batter into prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cake is lightly browned, 25 to 30 minutes. Brush melted butter on top of cake and sprinkle with about 2 tablespoons sugar. Continue to bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 5 to 10 more minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8 inch square pan.
• Cream butter or margarine and 1/2 cup sugar until fluffy. Add salt and vanilla. Separate eggs and reserve the whites. Add egg yolks to the sugar mixture; beat until creamy.
• Combine 1 1/2 cups flour and baking powder; add alternately with milk to egg yolk mixture. Coat berries with 1 tablespoon flour and add to batter.
• In a separate bowl, beat whites until soft peaks form. Add 1/4 cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold egg whites into batter. Pour into prepared pan. Sprinkle top with remaining 1 tablespoon sugar.
• Bake for 50 minutes, or until cake tests done.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
• Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
• Cream sugar and butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with milk, beating batter briefly after each addition.
• Crush 1/2 of the blueberries with a fork in a small bowl; mix into the batter. Gently fold remaining blueberries into the batter and fill the prepared muffin cups 3/4 full.
• Stir sugar and cinnamon for topping together in a small bowl; sprinkle over cupcakes.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 30 minutes. Cool in the tin for 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Make the topping: Mix together granulated and brown sugars and cinnamon.
• Make the cupcakes: Preheat oven to 375 degrees with rack in upper third of oven. Line cups of a standard muffin tin with baking cups. Sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Beat together butter and granulated sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then beat in vanilla, scraping down sides of bowl. Reduce speed to low, and beat in flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with sour cream and beginning and ending with flour. Fold in blueberries.
• Divide batter among baking cups. Add topping, pressing to adhere to batter. Bake until golden and a toothpick inserted in center comes out with moist crumbs attached, 20 to 21 minutes. Remove cupcakes from tin, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Make the icing: Beat together butter and cream cheese with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low, and gradually beat in vanilla and confectioners' sugar. Raise speed to medium-high, and beat 1 minute. Spoon jam on top of icing, and without stirring, spoon icing into a disposable pastry bag. Snip off a 3/4-inch opening in tip, and pipe swirled mounds of icing on top of each cupcake. Although best if eaten immediately, cupcakes can be refrigerated up to 6 hours and brought to room temperature 45 minutes before serving.
