FAQs

Expand All:
Can I use whole eggs instead of just egg whites in the cupcake batter?

Yes, but using only egg whites results in a lighter texture. Whole eggs will make the cupcakes slightly denser.

Can I use salted butter for the frosting?

It's best to use unsalted butter to control the saltiness of the frosting. If using salted butter, adjust the amount of added salt accordingly.

How can I make the cupcakes look more decorative?

Try piping the frosting using a star tip for a beautiful swirl effect, and top each cupcake with a mini Oreo cookie for a finishing touch.
