Total Time 32 minutes
Servings 16
You’ll Need:
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 + 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup full fat sour cream
For the Frosting
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3 cups confectioner's sugar
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 package Churro Mix or store bought churros
How to Make:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners; set aside.
In a bowl fit with a mixer, beat sugar and butter until creamed, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time. Increase speed to medium and continue to beat about 3 minutes.
Beat in vanilla extract, salt, baking soda, baking powder, and cinnamon. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and continue to beat about 1 minute.
Slowly beat in heavy cream. Beat in flour, a little at a time. Beat in sour cream until incorporated. Scrape down sides of the bowl, beat for a few more seconds.
Spoon batter about 1/2 full. Bake in oven for about 22 minutes or until the center of the cupcake comes out clean with a toothpick. Allow to cool completely.
TO MAKE THE FROSTING
Beat softened butter, cinnamon, and confectioners' sugar for 3-5 minutes. Beat in 1/4 softened cream cheese at a time. Beat in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Beat for an additional 3 minutes. Fill a cupcake liner bag with frosting.
Refrigerate frosting for about 30 minutes. Use a cupcake tip (such as a Russian Cake Tip) to frost cupcakes. Top with a churro and leftover frosting to get it to stick to the top.
