Low carb hazelnut cupcakes
Ingredients for 6 cupcakes
- 1/2 package Simply Keto Soft Cake Mix
- 1-2 teaspoons Simply Keto Hot Chocolate Mix
- 6 whole hazelnuts
For the cream
90g of butter
90g of spreadable cheese
25g of erythritol powder
5 drops of Simply Keto Natural Hazelnut Flavor
1 teaspoon Simply Keto Hot Chocolate Mix
Gasket
50g of coarsely chopped hazelnuts
50g of erythritol gold
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 175°C.
- Mix the mixture and the cocoa in a bowl with water until a smooth dough is formed.
- Pour the mixture into greased (or silicone) molds and bake for 20 minutes. Then let it cool completely.
- Whip the softened butter with the mixer for at least 3 minutes. Gradually add the powdered erythritol and continue whisking. The mass will become crumbly at first, but then it will become creamy again. Finally add the other ingredients and mix.
- Pour the cream into a piping bag and keep in the fridge until needed.
- Toast the chopped hazelnuts in a pan with the gold erythritol.
- Empty the cooled muffins from the top and fill them with a little buttercream and a whole hazelnut.
- Spread the muffins with a little buttercream and decorate with the caramelized hazelnut granola.
