Im so excited you are here. We're baking today. I'm used to baking my face
I'm here to bake with you, and I'm ready to eat
Learn for anyone who's not familiar with Patrick makeup artist beauty guru
I'll put links down below to anything that we're talking about that you can find, and you made a baking powder
So this is this is for your face. Yes, not not to eat, right?
What is the baking powder like for me who doesn't know a lot about makeup like what it is. It's similar
So uh whenever you put on foundation
Consealer but you want to last all day
You will set it and forget it and bake it at 350 on your face with a sponge. I'm just kiddingomgfjkbghjn
You'll just put the powder underneath your eyes, and it will really just lock in all the liquids liquid ingredients per se
so I developed a very special Universal powder for all skin tones and skin types that looks great everyone and i have one for you
I'm so excited Valentine's Day is coming up, and I thought we should make a delicious
Easy-mode cupcakes so today we're gonna be making some mocha cupcakes and
We're decorating them with little 8-bit hearts, so I thought it would be a cute name like I love you to bits cupcake perfect
Let's get started
Patrick I'm gonna have you introduce most all of the ingredients because your nails are gorgeous and most of times
I'm pointing to things and I have short little boring nails
I'm gonna let you guys enjoy them because they're so pretty now to decorate you can use anything
you'd like but because we're making love you to bits, and they're
8-bit we're gonna be using these little 8-bit heart sprinkles these are from the baking line, and there's also
8-bit icing decorations
And then for the cupcake recipe 1 and 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons of flour
3/4 cup of brown sugar half a cup of cocoa powder my favorite
1/2 a cup of cold coffee my favorite
Half a cup of buttermilk, a quarter cup of oil, half a teaspoon of vanilla, one whole egg
1/2 teaspoon of baking soda, one teaspoon of baking powder, oh who put that there. Oops not that kind
1 tablespoon of edible baking powder, 1 tablespoon of instant espresso powder, and 3/4 cup sugar
And now let's put it all together
First up to making our cupcakes is whisking together our dry ingredients in a large bowl all right so Patrick
I'm gonna hand these over to you flour just dump it all in cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking soda, and baking powder
Whisk together tell well combined and next we're gonna set it off to the side oh
You went this way
There we go so we set our dry ingredients to the side, and now we are going to mix in our liquid ingredients
glamour shot
Beautiful beautiful now the buttermilk a little oil and Patrick while you are doing that I'll be back here
And you'll see hearts in the background add the vanilla and then the whole egg
All right well
Sorta, that's how they do it in Cinderella one of the fairies actually makes it like that. oh you want me to crack the egg Yes you gotta crack the egg
We're really making love today
Yes crack let the whole thing in there
Yes
Can I add the espresso powder because this is my favorite. I want all the espresso powder in there. Boom
Then you're gonna whisk together throw this on the stove, and we're gonna have coffee scrambled eggs
Just kidding whisk together break the yolk up put it in the mixture so next
We have our wet and we're gonna mix them into our dry ingredients
I really love this recipe because it is super easy mode and you can just pour all that wet into the dry
And whisk together one more time Patrick, I'm putting you to work cause you're the guest oh I'm down
And just keep whisking together and until no more dry ingredients
Is showing all right you guys so now our batter is all done. We're gonna put it into these fancy
glorious red
cupcake liners and you're gonna fill each one about two-thirds full this recipe makes a dozen
So hopefully we fill these perfectly and if it gets a little messy. Don't worry about it at all
I make a mess all the time
These are looking so good you're gonna bake these at 350 for 18 minutes
Yes, that's gonna be 18 long minutes
We're gonna have to smell this delicious chocolate mocha smell coming out of the oven
But we can't eat them yet but we can get all of our decorations ready
Oh cool
so as soon as they come out we decorate them and gonna eat them all right guys and gals our cupcakes are now cool to the
Touch, and they are ready to decorate
This is my favorite part
I like to decorate a lot for icing that we have some vanilla buttercream icing that I just put into some
Piping bags with one a tips at the end, which is just a very large circle, and then we have our royal icing
16 bit hearts our 8 bit heart sprinkles and some pink and white jimmies all right
So I can swirl or you can do a dome
Whatever, you'd like I'll show you how to do both ways so the dome method is instead of touching the cupcake you're gonna
Hover right above it and you just apply even pressure and keep it above above above above above and stop
And then the swirl is just when you start on the outside and you work your way in
So perfect like that
Boo yes okay, Oh I
mean
Professional that's what we call blending that was
Amazing ah look at this you guys that was a perfect swirl
You can put a few of these on
*kissing noises* I love you. I love you. No i love you more. No i love you more. I love you to the moon and back *gasps*
And then for the other options sprinkle on a few of these
And pink sprinkle and a few 8-bit hearts, and then just keep doing this to the rest of your cupcakes and tada
