Directions

Instructions Checklist
  • Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper or foil liners.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour with the cornstarch, baking powder and salt.

  • In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the sugar with the eggs and vanilla extract at medium-high speed until smooth and thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the butter and oil and beat until incorporated, scraping the bottom and side of the bowl. Add the dry ingredients and milk in 3 alternating batches, beating well between additions. Carefully pour the batter into the lined muffin tins, filling them about two-thirds full.

  • Bake the cupcakes in the center of the oven for 20 to 23 minutes, until springy and a toothpick or cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool slightly in the muffin tin, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  • 将切碎的巧克力放入耐热的中等碗中。在一个小锅中,用黄油,玉米糖浆和盐加热奶油,直到热但不沸腾。立即将混合物倒在巧克力上。静置5分钟,然后搅拌直至光滑。让糖霜冷却,偶尔搅拌,直到足够厚,以浸入和遮盖纸杯蛋糕,约30分钟。对于足够传播的糖霜牢固,让静置1小时。

  • Frost the cooled cupcakes, top with the crushed pretzels and caramel sauce and serve.

Make Ahead

The unfrosted cupcakes can be wrapped in plastic and stored at room temperature for up to 2 days or frozen for up to 1 month. The chocolate frosting can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Return to room temperature before using.
