Mimosa Lemon Cupcake for Women's Day: the recipe

For the dough:

• 4 oz of butter
• 4 oz of 00 flour
• 3 eggs
• 1 lemon zest
• Sugar
• Baking powder

For the cream:

• 8 oz of milk
• 10 oz of liquid cream
• 0.8 oz of corn starch
• 3 yolks
• Sugar
• 1 vanilla bean

1. Pour the butter into a bowl, together with the sugar and lemon zest: whip the ingredients with the electric whisk until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Pour the eggs into the bowl, after having lightly beaten them. Continue to whip the dough until it has reached a frothy consistency.
2. Add the sifted flour and baking powder, then mix gently from bottom to top.
3. Distribute the dough in the baking cups and cook in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes.
4. In the meantime, you can prepare the decorative cream by heating the milk in a saucepan. Pour sugar and eggs into a bowl and mix the mixture with a kitchen whisk. Gradually add the cornstarch, the vanilla bean and, finally, the previously heated milk. Mix the whole with a whisk.
5. Now pour the mixture into the saucepan and heat over low heat, adding the previously grated lemon zest. Stir the mixture until a uniform compound is obtained.
6. Now pour the cream into a baking dish and let it rest by covering it with plastic wrap. Store it at room temperature first until it cools, then store it in the refrigerator for an hour.
7. Whip the liquid cream with the whisk, then add gradually the cooled cream from the refrigerator.
8. Remove the cupcakes from the oven. Fill a sac-à-poche with lemon cream and garnish the sweets as desired.
