Aunty Young（安迪漾）: 抹茶红豆北海道牛奶杯子蛋糕(Matcha Hokkaido Milk Cupcakes)

12月3日，今天我们大家又赴约了。

说的就是轩宏妈妈家的北海道杯子蛋糕之约耶！
It's the 3rd of December, and I have another promise to keep. What promise? XuanHom mama's "Hokkaido Cupcake date", that's what!

那天做了抹茶面包，很喜欢他的香气。

于是灵机一线，来个北海道抹茶红豆杯子蛋糕。
I really like the aroma of the Matcha Bread I baked the other day, so I decided to use the same flavor and baked this Hokkaido Matcha Cupcake.

松软的北海道蛋糕体，搭上香气清新的抹茶和香甜的红豆，

一款简单又好吃的杯子蛋糕。
The soft Hokkaido Cupcake texture, together with the fragrance of matcha and kidney beans, makes this a simple and delicious cupcake!

抹茶红豆北海道牛奶杯子蛋糕
食谱参考：巧思空间

[蛋黃糊]
4個蛋黃
40克玉米油
40克鮮奶
1/4小匙藍姆酒
50克低筋麵粉
2大匙切碎的蜜紅豆

[蛋白霜]
5個蛋白
60克砂糖
1/4小匙檸檬汁

[內餡] ：
200克動物性鮮奶油＋30克糖粉打發後，拌入1小匙抹茶粉。

[做法]

1) 烤箱預熱至160℃。
2) 蛋黃打散，加葡萄籽油、鮮奶和藍姆酒攪拌均勻。
3) 篩入麵粉，拌勻成蛋黃糊。再拌入了稍微切碎的蜜紅豆。
4) 蛋白打至起泡，加入檸檬汁。糖分3次加入，打至硬性發泡。
5) 把一半蛋白霜刮到蛋黃糊中，用橡皮刮刀從下往上切拌均勻。
6) 再把混勻的麵糊倒回另一半的蛋白霜裡，依法混合。
7) 把麵糊倒入方形紙杯，送進已預熱的烤箱烤18－20分鐘。
8) 蛋糕烤好放涼後，擠入抹茶奶油餡，擠到餡冒一點出來就可以了。（蛋糕倒不倒扣無所謂。因為擠入奶油餡後，下陷的蛋糕又會鼓起了。）
9) 最後以蜜紅豆和糖粉做裝飾。

Matcha Hokkaido Milk Cupcakes
Recipe adapted from 巧思空间

Egg yolk batter:
4 egg yolks
40g corn oil
40g fresh milk
1/4tsp rum
50g cake flour
2tbsp chopped kidney beans(drained of syrup)

Meringue:
5 egg whites
60g caster sugar
1/4tsp lemon juice

Filling:
Beat 200g whipping cream with 30g icing sugar, then spoon in 1tsp matcha powder.

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 160℃.
2. Beat the egg yolks and add in corn oil, fresh milk and rum. Mix evenly.
3. Sieve in the flour and mix evenly to form an egg yolk batter. Mix in the chopped kidney beans.
4. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, then add in the lemon juice. Add in the sugar in 3 times, and beat the meringue until hard peaks form.
5. Scoop in half the meringue into the egg yolk mixture and fold in with a spatula.
6. Pour the evenly mixed mixture back into the remaining meringue, fold in evenly.
7. Pipe the batter into square paper cups. Bake in the oven for 18 - 20 minutes.
8. Allow the cakes to cool. Once cooled, pipe the matcha filling into the cake until some of it squeezes out. (It doesn't matter if you turn the cake upside-down or not, because after you pipe in the filling, the shrinked cake will return to original size.)
9. Decorate with kidney beans and icing sugar.

天气闷热，原本美美的花形奶油，拍没两下照，就糊成一团。

难不成以后得在空调设备下，才能拍照？ @-@
The weather was so hot, I had barely snapped a few pictures before the icing started melting into a puddle. Should I maybe take photos in an air-conditioned room next time? @-@

脱了外衣的蛋糕，孩子竟然说像枕头，

孩子，你的想象力未免太过火了？
According to NaNak, without its "clothes" on, the Hokkaido Cupcake looks like a pillow. NaNak, don't you think your imagination is too wild?
