Ingredients

For the dough:

For the frosting:

For decoration:

200 g fondant, white
Food coloring powder in gold and pink
some alcohol, clearer

Instructions

For approx. 10 muffins.
First make the ears and horns. Make the decoration for the cupcakes a day in advance, as it takes a little longer to harden. It is also not a problem to make the decoration much earlier and use it e.g., to keep in a can, if that fits better into the schedule.
For the horns, shape the fondant into thin strands that are a little thicker towards one end. Twist together and dry for approx. 2 - 3 hours.
Mix the golden food coloring with a few drops of alcohol (use as little liquid as possible) and brush the horns with it. Then dry the golden horns again for 3 - 5 hours or better overnight so that they become completely firm again.
Roll out the fondant thinly for the ears. Then use a flower petal cutter or a heart cutter, making sure that it is not too bulky. The ears to dry e.g., place them over a wooden spoon so that they get a little bulge. As soon as the ears have hardened, paint them in the middle of the inside with pink powder paint, fanning out the paint a little towards the edge.
For the muffins the next day, mix together the sugar, oil, egg and butter vanilla flavor. Then add the vanilla yogurt and stir in. Now mix the flour, cornstarch and baking powder and fold into the mixture. Spread the batter with a tablespoon in a muffin tin lined with paper liners. Pour approx. 1 - 2 tablespoons of batter into each mold. Do not fill the molds too full, as the dough will still rise and may overflow.
Bake in a preheated oven at 175 ° C for about 20-25 minutes.
For the frosting cream it is important that all ingredients have the same or room temperature!
Beat the butter, mascarpone and powdered sugar in the food processor. When the mass has grown in volume and is whitish, add the food coloring and flavoring ingredient (this can take a good 5 - 10 minutes). Then beat briefly on a high level until everything is well distributed. Finally, let the machine run slower and add the cream cheese spoon by spoon. When it is a homogeneous mass, switch off the machine. Apply the frosting to the cooled muffins as desired.
Finally, attach the horns and ears to the frosting.
