Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 2 h

Step 1:
Mix the dry ingredients from the first group for the light dough: flour, starch, baking powder, almond flour.

Grind the clitoris flowers (blue tea) with powdered sugar in a coffee grinder.
Step 3:
Beat softened butter with powdered sugar, add one egg to the butter mixture.
Step 4:
Add flour mixture and cream alternately to the buttercream. Divide the dough into two parts. Approximately 2/3 of the dough should be put in the form of a "grandmother" (or another form for a cupcake).
Step 5:
Add ground clitoris and cream to a smaller part of the dough, if desired, you can enhance the color with tincture of clitoris flowers.
Step 6:
Put the dark dough on top of the light one, mix gently.
Step 7:
Bake in a preheated oven approx. 180 degrees until tested on a dry toothpick, about 45-60 min. Immediately fold the cupcake out of the mold on the grill, let it cool before serving. If desired, you can cover with glaze.

Anthocyanin pigments contained in the flowers of the clitoris triplicate are natural antioxidants, benefit the vessels of the eyes and brain, the cardiovascular system, promote blood purification, activate metabolism at the cellular level; are a natural means to reduce cholesterol; have an effect on glucose metabolism. The triple clitoris is used in the treatment of chronic fatigue syndrome, as an antidepressant; it gives the effect of improving memory and many, many other valuable useful properties that make this ingredient an effective and effective dietary supplement worthy of attention for cooking and to include in various dishes.
The clitoris does not convey pronounced taste sensations in baking, compared to color. Therefore, it needs an active companion to convey the taste palette. It was decided to complement the bright blue color in the marble cupcake with the aroma of bitter almonds, to create, so to speak, a playful confectionery "fatality". The clitoris will give a new look at the beloved by many, but already hackneyed banal recipe. Enjoy the aroma and color of the marble cupcake Blues with a cup of hard-brewed coffee in the early morning. Get pleasure and health benefits.
