Chai Cupcakes with Raspberry Cream Cheese Frosting
(Adapted from Sky High Cakes via Une-Deux Senses)
For the cupcakes (makes 12):
2/3 c. whole milk
5 bags chai tea (used 4, I have some very strong chai tea lying around)
2 whole eggs
1 egg yolk
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/3 c. cake flour
1 c. sugar
2 1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cupcake tin with liners.
2. Bring milk to a low simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Add tea bags and remove from heat. Allow to steep for 10 minutes. Squeeze milk from teabags and discard tea.
3. In a small bowl mix together 1/4 cup of the chai milk with the eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla.
4. In a large bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add butter and remaining chai milk and beat until fluffly.
5. Add egg mixture in two batches and mix just to incorporate.
6. Divide batter evenly among cupcake cups. Bake for 18-22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
For the frosting (makes enough for a lot more than 12 – halve, or plan on having extra):
1 8oz package of cream cheese, at room temperature
3 TBS butter, at room temperature
1/4 c. – 1/3 c. raspberry jam (used blackberry)
2-3 TBS grenadine or raspberry flavored syrup/liquor (used 2 teaspoons red currant jam)
2 1/2 c. powdered sugar
Beat cream cheese and butter together until fluffy. Mix in jam and syrup until desired color and flavor is reached. Mix in powdered sugar a half cup at a time, stopping when desired consistency is reached. Chill for an hour before using.
Enjoy :)
