Ingredients

Servings: 12
  • 100 g + 12 cherries
  • 100 g Dark chocolate
  • 275 g Butter
  • 275 g Sugar
  • 1 package Vanillin sugar
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 4 Eggs (size M)
  • 160 g Flour
  • 1 TEASPOON Baking Powder
  • 15 soft caramel sweets
  • 75 ml Milk
  • 75 g demerara sugar
  • 200 g low-fat cream cheese (21 % fat in dry matter; not directly from the refrigerator)
  • 12 Paper sleeves

Directions

  1. 1

    Wash, halve and stone 100 g cherries. Roughly chop the chocolate. Melt 125 g butter and chocolate in a saucepan over low heat while stirring, remove from the heat and pour into a mixing bowl. Add 200 g sugar, vanillin sugar, salt, eggs, flour and baking powder. Mix to a smooth dough with the whisks of the hand mixer.

  2. 2

    Finally fold in the halved cherries. Place paper sleeves in the recesses of a muffin tray (12 recesses). Pour in the dough and bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 175 °C/ convection oven: 150 °C/ gas: level 2) for 20-30 minutes. Remove the muffins from the oven, remove them from the troughs and let them cool down on a cake rack. As soon as the muffins have cooled down, chop the caramel sweets finely. Heat the sweets and milk while stirring occasionally until the caramel is dissolved. Cream 150 g butter, 75 g sugar and brown sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer. Add 2/3 of the caramel milk. Slowly stir the cream cheese into the cream, then fill the cream into a piping bag with star-shaped spout.

  3. 3

    Heat the sweets and milk while stirring occasionally until the caramel is dissolved. Cream 150 g butter, 75 g sugar and brown sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer. Add 2/3 of the caramel milk. Slowly stir the cream cheese into the cream, then fill the cream into a piping bag with star-shaped spout. Spray the cream onto the muffins, decorate with a cherry and chill for at least 30 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining caramel milk before serving
