I use my KitchenAid for frostings as the machine can make it so much lighter and fluffier!
Aaron's tips
Preheat your oven to 170c / 160c Fan.
Line a 12 Hole Muffin Tray with Large Cupcake Cases / Muffin Cases.
Cream together the butter and light brown sugar with an electric beater till smooth – add in the eggs, flour, cocoa powder, sweet hazelnut & chocolate flavouring, and beat again till combined on a medium speed.
Once combined it might still be a little stiff, so loosen with the whole milk.
Spoon into your cases and bake in the oven for
18-20 minutes or until cooked through! Leave to cool on a wire rack.
Melt the Kinder chocolate bars in the microwave on a low/medium heat until smooth – leave to cool.
Beat the room temperature butter until smooth.
Add in the icing sugar 1/3 at a time, making sure the sugar is fully incorporated until moving on!
Once all of the sugar is in the frosting mix, keep on beating the frosting but add the melted and slightly cooled Kinder chocolate – beat again.
If its looking a bit stiff, or a bit odd, add a tsp or two of boiling water and continue to beat until smooth.
Decorate your cupcakes how you like, I stick in half a bit of kinder bueno each, and sprinkle on some chocolate sprinkles – and ENJOY!
