Marble Cupcakes



One type of cupcake that I find myself making over and over again are Marble Cupcakes. They are so easy to make, and always produce rave reviews!

I use the Marble Cupcake recipe from the Martha Stewart's Cupcakes book, so this recipe and directions are adapted from Martha Stewart's Cupcakes book. This recipe makes about 14 - 16 cupcakes.


Marble Cupcakes
  • 1 3/4 cups cake flour
  • 2 tsps baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream 
  • 1/2 cup butter (unsalted, room temperature)
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1/3 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup boiling water
  1. Line regular muffin tins with paper liners and preheat your oven to 350F
  2. Sift together the first 3 ingredients
  3. Mix together the milk and the heavy cream in a small bowl
  4. Cream the butter and the sugar together until completely mixed, then add the eggs individually until they are completely mixed in.  After the eggs are mixed in, add the vanilla and mix well
  5. Add the dry ingredients, alternating with additions of the milk mixture
  6. Add the cocoa to the boiling water, and stir until the mixture is fairly smooth
  7. Remove 1 cup of the batter, and then add it to the cocoa paste and mix
  8. Add one tablespoon of the white batter to each cup, followed by a teaspoon of the chocolate batter.  Finish off with another teaspoon of the white batter, and swirl with a toothpick.
  9. Bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick poked into the center comes out nice and clean
  10. Let cool before removing from the cupcake tins
  11. Decorate with whatever you like! I prefer mine naked (no toppings at all!)

  3. This is especially true if you have worked in the same field for a very long time.However, unemployment can also have a bright side. It gives you the chance to reflect on your career path. If you been considering a new field, now is the time to research the options and see what might be the right fit for you.

The toilet, bathtub, oven and sink are all in one room. He's ''on a hot gym t shirts streak at the moment'', though Jackie says he still comes home and says he's going to give it away. ''I've heard that so many times,'' she laughs. ''He loves the game and he loves to win,'' says Robertson, 67.

  5. ModularThe popularity ofmodular sofas is another indicator of small space living, because you can move parts around to get just the right fit (think the middle of your sectional on your covered patio). Canadian company Pinnacle makes modular, customizable sofas in three different seat widths to allow for custom fitting and free up floor space.. Modern urban flood and water management emphasises holistic strategies that reduce flood risk while providing co benefits to urban economies, societies and environments. The Blue Green City TM concept provides a viable framework for putting this into practice. This result is deemed to be due to the damage caused to the reputation of the institution where the fraud took place. In turn, this lead to investors purchasing the stock of other financial institutions.. A course that forces you to hit every club in the bag. That unusual these days. And there's no need to wait in lines at the check in desk and baggage carousel when sending luggage through the mail. For more information, read "".
