These cute sheep cupcakes have marshmallow fur, an easy to make fondant face, and the whole thing sits on top of a moist sponge base. Frosting, marshmallow and cake make for a perfect bite.

Note:

  • If you are not a fan of fondant, you can try using modeling chocolate for the faces.

Steps

1
Done

Preheat oven to 175°C. Line a 12 count muffin pan with 12 cupcake liners.

In a large bowl, beat the room temperature margarine, sugar, salt, vanilla extract with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for about 3-4 mins until creamy.
Add the egg one at a time and beat for 20 seconds after each addition.

2
Done

Add the flour, baking powder, milk and lemon zest. Beat to incorporate on low speed.
Using a large ice cream scoop, scoop even amounts in your prepared pan.

Bake in the preheated oven 175°C for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Transfer the muffins onto a wire rack and cool to room temperature before frosting.

3
Done

Frosting

In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream together with 2 Tablespoon of powdered sugar on high speed until stiff.

In another bowl, beat the cream cheese with another 2 Tablespoon of powdered sugar.

Add the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, and mix them slowly using a spatula.
Once incorporated, transfer the frosting to a piping bag. Let the cream chill at least 15 minutes in the fridge.

Done

Sheep's Face

For the assembly:
- Use cocoa powder to dye the fondant brown and roll it out to make a thin layer.
- Use an oval shaped cookie cutter to cut out the heads of the sheep or you can modify it with a small knife.
- Use a small paint brush to gently brush a small amount of water onto the fondant where you want the eyes to be.

5
Done

Once your cupcakes have cooled, pipe the frosting evenly onto the cupcakes.
Lightly cover it in mini marshmallows to create your sheep fur.
Pipe a small amount of frosting on the back of the head and you’re ready to put the sheep face on.
