Cooking lemon cupcakes
Preheat the oven to 180-190 degrees. In a large bowl, combine wheat flour, baking powder, and salt. Set dry ingredients aside.
Put softened butter and granulated sugar in a blender bowl, beat until fluffy. Gradually add chicken eggs to the creamy mass, continuing to beat. Add vanilla sugar. Gently add flour mixture, milk and coconut flakes into the butter mass. Make the dough smooth.
In order to make cupcakes, you will need special cups. Brush them with a little vegetable oil, then spread the dough. Place the tins in the oven and bake the cupcakes for 25-30 minutes.
Prepare the filling. Dissolve cornstarch in 1/3 cup cold water and put on low heat. Gradually add the rest of the water and granulated sugar. Add egg yolks to the mixture, continue to cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove the pan from heat, add butter, zest and lemon juice to the sweet mass. Whisk the filling using a mixer or hand whisk. To prepare the cream, beat all the ingredients with a mixer until they reach stable peaks.
Now it remains to collect the cupcakes. Using a small knife, cut out the middle of each cupcake and put the filling in the depression, decorate with protein cream on top.
