Hi friends, hope you all have had a nice day.
The kids made cupcakes with a special tribute to the minions. They adore minions and wanted to make banana cupcakes since the minions love bananas.
So here is the recipe we used.
Minion Cupcakes Recipe
100gm Butter
185gm Castor Sugar
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Essence
2 Eggs
200gm Self Raising Flour
1/2 Cup of Milk (Standard or Lite)
1 ripe banana
Prepare the cupcake tins with cupcake liners. Make sure the butter is soft by either leaving out of the fridge until it's soft or putting it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds until it's soft.
Turn the oven on Bake and at 200 degrees Celsius.
1. Mix the butter, castor sugar and vanilla essence in a bowl until it's pale.
2. Add an egg in one at a time and mix until combined.
3. Add in half of the flour and mix until combined, then add half of the milk until it's combined.
Then pour the remaining flour in and mix, and then the remaining milk and mix until it's combined.
4. Mash the banana until its thick with no lumps and add it to the cupcake batter.
5. Mix until its combined.
6. Spoon the batter into the cupcake tins. Making sure not to over fill the cupcake liners.
7. Put the tins into the oven for 15-20 minutes. Or until the top of the cupcakes are golden brown, and springy when you lightly touch the tops of the cupcakes.
8. When cooked, put on to cake racks to cool.
Minion Icing Recipe
1 Cup of Icing sugar
Warm water
Food colouring (Yellow, Black) (Optional: Blue for the overalls)
Toothpicks or something to aid in creating minion faces.
1. Mix together the icing sugar and about a table spoon of warm water. If the consistancy of the icing is too runny add a little more icing sugar. If it's too thick add a little more warm water.
2. Divide into 3 seperate bowls.
3. Add yellow to one mixture, black to one mixture and leave the last mixture white.
If you chose to have blue make sure you divide the mixture into 4 and have one for the blue coloring.
4. Now you are ready to start icing your cupcakes!
Icing Minion Cupcakes
1. Cover the whole cupcake top with yellow icing.
(You may want to wait for a minute or two to let the icing set for a bit before continuing.)
2. Next using a toothpick get some white icing and drip it near the top side of the cupcake, you'll be making the eyes. Make sure you have enough to make the eyes. Make them round and big. But not to big otherwise you wont be able to fit in the frames of their goggles. (Or you could have a one eyed minion)
3. Now using Black icing, add small pupils for the eyes. and go around the whites of the eyes with black and add some straps on the side of the goggles that go to the edge of the cupcake.
4. Next is adding a mouth using the white icing again, make a little oval shape under the goggles.
5. Using black icing, make a mouth shape making sure to outline the mouth. You can make your minion smile or frown. What ever you like.
6. Now finish off with the hair or not you may want this minion cupcake to have no hair at all.
Yay! All finished. All that's left to do is to eat it! Yummy!
