I bring to your attention one of the variants of the Christmas cupcakes. This cupcake is not for the following series: spicy, with nuts and dried fruit. This is a very different cake, but nevertheless it is suitable for New year or Christmas. And the whole thing is in the design of the cupcake!!! His whole " beauty" in the middle of the cupcake, in my version is baked with chocolate, something very similar to the brownie cupcake, and carved in the shape of stars. Here variations can be a lot... it can be Christmas trees, little men, hearts... your choice. Well, the cake is very tender and delicious! I made it based on ricotta cheese can be easily replaced for cottage cheese (preferably dry) or any other cottage cheese. And of course, the final point is a thick thick layer of chocolate... and for decoration I used gingerbread which is also generously poured chocolate. As decoration use the same "stars" of chocolate dough or any other jewelry -- Let your imagination run free and get you out the usual scrap products a very elegant and festive cupcake!!!
