Instructions

  • 1.   Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • 2.   In a first bowl, mix the flour, salt, and baking powder until the mixture is smooth, then set it aside.
  • 3.   Prepare another bowl and pour in the sugar, then the melted butter (in the microwave).
  • 4.   Mix until you obtain a sticky dough.
  • 5.   At this point, I like to add a teaspoon of yellow food coloring to give the cake a fun color, but this step is optional.
  • 6.   Fill your small paper molds two-thirds full, then bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • 7.   Crack one egg and mix well, then add the second egg and mix again.
  • 8.   Gradually incorporate the flour, salt, and baking powder prepared earlier, then mix for 2-3 minutes until it is well combined.
  • 9.   ATTENTION: watch the cooking carefully because if you leave them in for 1 minute too long, they will be ruined.
  • 10.   When they are golden brown, remove them from the oven and let them cool.
  • 11.   Prepare the salted caramel:
  • 12.   In a bowl, whisk the softened butter with a mixer until creamy.
  • 13.   Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix for about 2 minutes.
  • 14.   Add the vanilla extract, dulce de leche, and salt, then continue to whisk the mixture until it is smooth.
  • 15.   Set aside at room temperature for about 10 minutes so that the caramel does not harden.
  • 16.   To decorate your cupcakes, fill a piping bag with the caramel and pipe it onto the cupcakes.
  • 17.   You can also do this with 2 small spoons.
  • 18.   Leave them at room temperature for 15 minutes and enjoy!
