Cupcake with Cream Cheese frost

Cupcake again!

I love butter but butter cream is not my favorite, so I didn't feet to make any cupcake, but they are sooooooooooo cute!
So, after Macrobiotic version, I decided to make Cupcake with Cream Cheese frost(queso cremoso).
Moreover, instead of butter I added olive oil to the sponge and sour cream to the cream.
So it makes the cake low in calories;-)
Butter is rich in saturated fatty acid, on the contrary major part of olive oil is unsaturated fatty acid(olein acid), which has effect to lower only LDL(bad cholesterol) and is recommended to use for cooking. Of course you should not take too much even it is good oil for our health, because oil is oil!

＜Recipe＞

－Sponge－
Olive oil     　　 90g
Yogurt　　　　 125g
Sugar  　　　　　 80g
Egg　　　　　　　  2
Flour　　　　　 140g
Cocoa 　　　　　 10g
Baking powder　1 tea spoon
Chocolate   　　 45g

1.　Mix olive oil and yogurt in a bowl.
2.　Add sugar and mix.
3.　Add 1 egg and mix(X 2).
4.　Add sifted flours and mix.
5.　Melt chocolate in a microwave or by putting the bowl in hot water, and add and mix.
6.　Pour the mixture in muffin molds and bake them in a oven with 180℃ for 20 minutes.

You will have around 12 cakes.

－Cream－
Cream cheese　120g
Sour cream   　　70g
Powder sugar  　50g

1.　Leave cream cheese with room temperature to be soften, then add sour cream and mix them.
2.　Add powder sugar and mix them.

This time I made 4 colours, so added Green： Matcha 1 tea spoon, Brown： Cocoa 2 tea spoons, Pink： Raspberry jam 2 tea spoons, White： Lemon juice 2 tea spoons in 1/4 of cream respectively.
And squeeze the cream on the cooled cake.

My favorite was Raspberry cream, but among others Matcha one was the most popular
Matcha is good for health so it is like killing two birds with one stone?

Following the article of Nikkei Health, I also added Matcha in Omelet. Lots of vegetable, too.

If you take Matcha from morning, it shows a diet effect due to its promotion of fat burning and inhibition of fat absorption. I will try to have Matcha Latte instead of Cafe Latte from tomorrow♪

Bon profit!!!
