Blackberry Prosecco Cupcakes
As we quickly approach Valentine’s day, I wanted to share something a little different with you. My Blackberry Prosecco Cupcakes are guaranteed to be a HUGE HIT with your Love and with you! They are super simple to make (you get to use a cake mix). And they are different, we are using fresh blackberries instead of the traditional strawberry!
Now if you want EXTRA, EXTRA, EXTRA SIMPLE and traditional you can take a look back at my Prosecco Soaked Strawberries. It is a 3-ingredient recipe and it is almost mistake proof!
For the Blackberry Prosecco Cupcakes, we replace the water with Prosecco, the oil with melted butter (can we say double yum), and we use egg whites to keep the cupcakes a pretty white color. Once they are finished cooking, we carve out the center of the cupcake to hide a blackberry in the center of each one as an extra surprise!
Now don’t sweat the decorations. These will taste so good your beloved will not care in the least what they look like. And just so you know, I found the large white chocolate pearls at my local Kroger on the baking Isle. They were $1 a bag.
If you want to decorate yours like I did mine, here is what I did. I fitted my piping bag with a large star tip. Then I filled my bag with icing. I piped the icing on the top of my cooled cupcakes. Then I sprinkled my cupcakes with white sprinkles, added a few white chocolate pearls and a fresh blackberry on top.
