Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries (plus more for topping)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling)

How to Make Blueberry Cream Cupcake

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Remove from the oven and allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. While the cupcakes cool, whip the heavy cream in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the caramel sauce until well incorporated.
  11. Once cooled, generously pipe or spread the caramel cream over each cupcake and top with additional fresh blueberries. Drizzle with extra caramel sauce before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Use room temperature ingredients for a smoother batter.
  • Gently fold in the blueberries to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • Don’t skip cooling the cupcakes before adding the cream; warm cupcakes can melt the cream.
  • Adjust the amount of caramel drizzle based on your sweetness preference.

Easy Variations

  • Substitute half of the blueberries with raspberries or strawberries for a mixed berry version.
  • Add lemon zest to the batter for a citrusy kick.
  • For a chocolate twist, fold in mini chocolate chips along with the blueberries.

What to Serve With It

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert.
  • A cup of coffee or iced tea for a refreshing pairing.
  • Fresh fruit salad for a lighter side option.

Storage and Reheating

Store leftover cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For best results, enjoy them chilled, but you can also let them come to room temperature before serving. The caramel cream is best used fresh, but you can store it separately if necessary.
