Christmas cupcake: {instructions} for use

Winter holidays in Europe and the USA (the United States of America is a country in North America) are not complete without sweet pastries, and the famous cupcake has long become the emblem of Christmas in the UK. Oliver Cromwell never managed to eradicate the tradition of baking cupcakes in the run-up to Christmas. Over time, each country has developed its own celebratory sweets, but the British cupcake is considered the most delicious dessert!

Interesting Facts About Christmas Cake

English housewives once began preparing Christmas baking a month and a half before the holiday, and there is an explanation for this. The fact is that some ingredients for making the cake - dried apricots, prunes, raisins, dates, cherries, pineapple pieces - are aged in rum, cognac, sherry or Madeira with the addition of spices for about a week. With all this, it is necessary to stir the fruits and berries from time to time to ensure that they are evenly soaked. If you follow the technology for making cupcakes, you should take 0.5 glasses of alcohol per 0.5 kg of dried fruit.

Then the Christmas dough of eggs, sugar, butter and flour was kneaded, and the inside was added. Such a cake was even baked for several hours at a low temperature, after which it was covered with glaze, decorated with nuts and marzipan. While the cake stood and “waited” for Christmas, it became tastier, softer and more aromatic, while the baked goods did not spoil for a long time due to the alcohol content in it.

How to make a cupcake at home: preparing the filling

Modern housewives do not soak dried fruits in alcohol for so long and do not bake a cupcake for four hours. Christmas cupcake recipes have been simplified for our convenience, so they require less time, which, fortunately, does not affect their taste at all. So, take 500 g of all dried fruits and dried berries, wash them well, remove the seeds and cut into small pieces along with fried nuts and candied fruits. Place all the ingredients in a jar, add spices and pour half a glass of any strong alcohol - you can take liqueur or tincture. It is better to infuse dried fruits for a week, shaking them from time to time, but if you don’t have time, mix alcohol with very hot tea and pour the fruits overnight (that is, in the dark) . Thanks to boiling water, the ingredients are soaked instantly, becoming indescribably soft, juicy, fragrant and special.

How to make Christmas cake batter

Making cupcakes at home only seems complicated, in fact they are prepared quickly, because the dough does not need to rise and rest for a long time. Beat soft butter and sugar until foamy, add eggs, and then flour mixed with soda or baking powder. In some recipes for New Year's cupcakes, it is recommended to use only yolks and replace part of the wheat flour with almond flour. There are recipes where eggs are beaten with sugar until creamy, and butter is mixed with part of the flour, later both consistencies are combined, and the dough is kneaded with the remaining flour. It is important that the eggs are at room temperature, although some housewives completely do without them. From time to time, confectioners use molasses, honey or black sugar instead of white sugar, flavoring the cake with nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, lemon or orange zest.

Subtleties of proper baking

The mold for the cake must first be prepared - grease the bottom and walls with oil, then line it with baking paper, while serious confectioners fasten the joints with a stapler. The paper must protrude beyond the edges of the pan so that the cake can be simply pulled out - naturally, after it has cooled.

Since the Christmas cake batter is quite heavy and wet, bake it at a low temperature so that it is perfectly baked and the dried fruit does not burn. With a mold height of 5–7 cm, the oven requires 1–3 hours, so the approximate time can be calculated based on the size of the mold, occasionally testing the cake for doneness with a wood stick. Ready time also depends on the density of the dough and the quality of the goods. If the top is perfectly browned but the cake is not baked, cover it with foil and continue baking.

Never remove the Christmas cake from the tin while it's hot - it needs to cool completely. It is better to cover it with foil on top during this time. As the cake cools, it will thicken and become more elastic; all you have to do is wrap it in several layers of baking paper and cover it with foil on top. Then the baked goods will be able to “ripen” until Christmas from 1 to 4 weeks, and you can store it in this form for six months at room temperature and a year in the refrigerator, occasionally pouring alcohol on it. Every month it becomes softer and tastier, spreading a wonderful smell throughout the house, reminiscent of Christmas...

Secrets of making Christmas cupcakes at home

If you want your Christmas baked goods to last longer, add a little honey, jam and molasses to the dough, even if they are not in the recipe: they retain water in the cake and are typical preservatives.

There is also one secret with the help of which the pieces of the inside that are on the outside will not burn in the oven, and the cake will turn out smooth and beautiful - it will be more pleasant to decorate it. After kneading (before adding dried fruits), separate a little dough and spread it over the mold, making the bottom and sides. Next, mix the filling into the remaining dough, place it in the mold, and lightly coat the top with dough without the inside so that the nuts and dried fruits of the top layer do not burn. By the way, almost all housewives use tall tin cookie boxes for baking - they are perfect for cupcakes. After placing the dough in the mold, make a small depression in the middle; otherwise, during baking, the cake will rise in a mound and will be difficult to decorate.

If you decide to leave the cake for several months for long-term storage in paper and foil, pour alcohol over it every three days, which acts as a preservative. With all this, the alcohol will evaporate intensively, so the taste of the baked goods will not change, and in order for the cake to be one hundred percent soaked, you need to create holes in it with a wooden skewer and pour cognac or brandy into them.

Cupcake decorating is an art

How to serve a Christmas cake without decorations? At Christmas, everything must be beautiful and unusual, which is why English housewives turn baked goods into a work of art, decorating cupcakes with mastic figures. You can do it easier - sprinkle the cupcake with sweet powder or cover it with ordinary fondant.

A cupcake with protein glaze turns out very beautiful, for which one chilled egg white is perfectly beaten with a mixer until fluffy foam, and then 0.5–1 cup of sweet powder is added to it, continuing to beat. When the glaze thickens, pour 1 tsp into it. lemon juice and beat for another half a minute. If you cover a layer of jam with a delicate protein glaze and immediately decorate the cupcake with cake powder, the result will be original and indescribably delicious.

Christmas cake recipe that needs to be made now

Fragrant, spicy, with a huge amount of dried fruits and alcoholic impregnation, the Christmas cake guarantees a New Year's mood - along with cocoa, mulled wine and ginger cookies. “Afisha Daily” found out from the creator of the “Natasha Baked” project a recipe for impeccable New Year’s baking - we recommend that you do not put it off and prepare it quickly.

Ingredient ratio

A flawless cake has a silky, slightly crumbly texture. It should be moist and quite dense, with an even crumb. In order to make a good traditional cake, you need only four ingredients: flour, sugar, butter and eggs. Our recipes are based on a basic pound cake: all ingredients are taken in equal quantities - one pound (approximately 450 g). This amount is enough for two molds. You can experiment endlessly with the pound cake recipe: add filling, replace some of the wheat flour with another, and so on. All this, of course, is at your own risk and risk, because any ingredient plays a role not only in developing taste, but also texture. It is not allowed, for example, to greatly reduce the amount of sugar or replace it with honey and expect a light crumb - most likely, it will be even denser than usual. The cake will turn out completely different if you change the butter to vegetable oil - but in this case there is a question of taste. The perfect recipe can only be found through trial and error.

New Year's cake differs from the usual ratio of ingredients. We deliberately reduced the amount of sugar, because the main ingredient in it is dried fruits. Firstly, they themselves are quite sweet, and secondly, the New Year's cake should not be airy - its texture would be more accurately described by the English word chewy. We also replaced some of the wheat flour with crushed almonds - this makes the cake more tender, and adds a marzipan note to the smell.

Dough kneading technique

Usually the dough is prepared like this: first beat the butter and sugar, then add the eggs and flour. When you beat the butter and sugar, air bubbles are formed, which makes the cake airy. For this method, the temperature of the oil is very important: if the oil is very cool, then it can be under-beaten, if it is very warm, then it will begin to melt and will not be able to hold air bubbles.

There is another technique - reverse creaming, when flour is combined with butter at room temperature, and eggs are beaten with sugar. This technique gives more small bubbles, due to which the texture will become soft and silky, the cake will be the softest, but not as airy as with the classic method. Reverse creaming is easier and more reliable to perform, so I would recommend it to newbies. I personally prefer the texture of these particular cupcakes.

Preparation of dried fruits

Use those dried fruits that you like: prunes, dried apricots, pears, figs, dates, plums, cranberries. If you don't like raisins, just don't add them - it won't make the cupcake any worse, but you'll literally enjoy it.

You need to think about dried fruits in advance: it is better to pour orange juice and alcohol into the fruits about a week before baking (average rum or cognac will do here), mix everything and close tightly. Soaked fruits will give off water and a corresponding, slightly intoxicating smell to the cake. We use 100 grams of juice and rum per 1 kilogram of dried fruit. If you haven’t prepared in advance, you can cheat - heat dried fruits with juice, add rum or other alcohol, stir, close tightly and leave overnight (that is, in the dark) .

We also add candied orange peels to the filling. They are easy to prepare at home - you can find a large number of recipes on the Internet.

Excerpt

It is important to realize that the New Year's cake will be stored even longer than usual: dried fruits will not allow it to dry out, and sugar, which acts as a preservative, will not allow it to spoil. After the finished cake has cooled, it must be wrapped in paper, foil or film and left for at least a day, or better yet, for several weeks or a month. The longer, the tastier. But remember that everything is great in moderation and storing a cupcake for six months is not a good idea.

Three of the most common and fast Christmas cupcakes

  1. Articles

Soak dried fruits in rum in July, bake at the end of November, wrap in parchment and leave for a month until Christmas, periodically “soldering” with rum. The process of making stollen is certainly full of charm and makes you feel like a true lady. But when life suddenly ceases to be stable, when you don’t have time to sit down all December, and you start thinking about how to celebrate the New Year no earlier than the morning of the 31st, such things just look funny. I'd like a cupcake. And for yourself, and as a gift, and to take to a visit. So, it turns out that there are a lot of much more common options. Even ones that can be created in an hour from start to finish.

Firstly, there are cupcakes that do not require preparatory soaking of dried fruits and subsequent aging in finished form. Why soak dried fruits? So that they absorb the smell of rum and become wet. Why stand the finished cake? Because during baking, dried fruits do not have time to impart their own taste and smell to the dough. And they have time to age in a month, which is why the cake becomes much tastier. Is it possible to achieve all this quickly? It turns out yes. But to do this we need to turn technology on its head. Combine the watery dough ingredients with alcohol, dried fruits and spices in a saucepan and boil for 10 minutes. Add dry ingredients (flour, etc.) to the resulting mixture and bake. The result is a cake that is insanely good right out of the oven.

Secondly, gingerbread. Everything is even simpler here. An ordinary liquid cake batter, simply with an impressive set of spices for mulled wine (ginger, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, cardamom, star anise, and so on), dark brown sugar or dark molasses. In the German-Austrian tradition, they are made with dark beer and sour cream, but they are excellent even with water and vegetable oil. Wet, dark and very fragrant. Ginger, by the way, can be dried ground, or maybe fresh - then the gingerbread has a completely colorful and spicy taste. Fifteen minutes to knead, half an hour to bake, ready.

And, in the end, my favorite version of the Christmas dessert, once taken from the British TV presenter Nigella Lawson. An indescribable process and an even more indescribable result. Liquid cupcake again, but it couldn’t be any simpler. It is poured into a mold, filled with an equal volume of coffee sugar and filled with an impressive volume of boiling water. Into the oven and turn away. Half an hour later - a hot and spicy moist cake, drowning in a thick caramel-toffee sauce. Ice cream on top and off you go. By the way, it is also most appropriate for warm gingerbreads. So does vanilla sauce and whipped cream.
