Egg Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 cupcake cups with paper liners. In a bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder.
• In a mixing bowl, beat the white sugar with 1/2 cup butter until thoroughly mixed, then beat in the eggs, one at a time, incorporating each egg before adding the next. Stir in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Stir the flour mixture into the egg mixture, followed by the milk, mixing to make a smooth batter. Fill each lined cupcake cup about 2/3 full of batter, and push a frozen solid chocolate egg into the batter in the center of each cupcake so a tiny bit of the egg sticks out.
• Bake cupcakes in the preheated oven until the tops are lightly browned and the cakes spring back when pushed with a finger, 20 to 25 minutes. Allow cupcakes to cool completely.
• In a bowl, beat 1/2 cup of butter with confectioners' sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract; add 1 tablespoon of milk, a teaspoon at a time, until the frosting is smooth. Beat in your choice of food color to desired shade, and spread frosting on each cupcake. Top each cupcake with a candy-coated mini egg for decoration.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels.
• Line 6 cups of a nonstick muffin tin with bacon slices. Chop leftover bacon slices and sprinkle over the bottom of each cup.
• Whisk eggs, milk, butter, parsley, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Stir in ham and mozzarella cheese.
• Pour egg mixture into the bacon-lined cups; top with Gouda cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until Gouda cheese is melted and eggs are set, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 24-cup mini-muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Beat the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in the lemon zest. Beat in the whole egg, then the yolk, beating well after each addition; beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and beat in the flour mixture in three batches, alternating with the milk. Beat on medium speed until combined.
• Divide the batter among the mini-muffin cups, filling them two-thirds of the way. Bake until the cupcakes are golden and the tops spring back when pressed, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 10 minutes, then remove the cupcakes to the rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the frosting: Beat the butter, confectioners' sugar and salt in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until combined. Add the vanilla and beat on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes. Add the milk and beat until fluffy, about 1 more minute.
• Divide the frosting among 3 small bowls. Tint one yellow, one pink and one blue with food coloring. Drop alternating spoonfuls of the frosting into a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round tip. Pipe the frosting in a swirl onto the cupcakes. Serve in a clean egg carton.

Steps:

• Spoon marshmallow cream on top of chocolate cupcakes and spread with the back of the spoon. (The marshmallow will continue spreading as it sits.) Tint some more marshmallow cream yellowish-orange; transfer to a resealable plastic bag and snip a corner, then pipe a circle of "yolk" onto the cupcakes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350.
• Line 24 muffin cups with cupcake papers.
• Using an electric mixer on low speed, blend the ingredients together (in order) until moistened (approximately 30 seconds) in a large bowl.
• Scrape the sides of the bowl and blend on medium speed for another 2 minutes.
• Pour the batter into the muffin cups.
• Bake according to the directions on the box (this batter can, of course, be used for making cakes of different sizes, not just cupcakes).
• Be careful not to overfill the cups. This recipe truly does make 24 cupcakes.
• Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes and then remove from the pan and allow to cool completely before frosting.
• Frost with a purchased dairy and egg free frosting or make your own to use.
• I find that they are less crumbly if you refrigerate them overnight before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
• In a measuring cup, beat the eggs until smooth. Set aside.
• In a greased muffin tin, place your desired combination of fillings into each muffin cup.
• Season each cup with salt and pepper.
• Pour the beaten eggs into each muffin cup until the liquid almost reaches the top.
• Bake for 20 minutes, until set.
• Enjoy!
