YELLOW BUTTER CUPCAKES FOR HAMBURGER CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter and flour two standard muffin tins, or line muffin tins with paper liners; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together both flours, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down sides of bowl as necessary. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then beat in vanilla. With the mixer on low, add flour mixture in three parts, alternating with milk and beginning and ending with flour, mixing well after each addition.
• Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Bake, rotating pans halfway through, until golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and let cool completely on wire racks before frosting.

HAMBURGER CUPCAKES WITH POUND CAKE FRIES

Steps:

• Remove cupcake liners (if necessary) and cut each cupcake in half horizontally; place a brownie on the bottom half of each cupcake. Set top halves aside.
• Divide buttercream evenly between three bowls. To one bowl, add 1/4 teaspoon green food coloring and 2 drops yellow food coloring; mix well to combine. To the second bowl, add 1/2 teaspoon yellow food coloring and 1 drop red food coloring; mix well to combine. To the third bowl, add 1 teaspoon red food coloring and 1 drop blue food coloring; mix well to combine.
• Transfer each colored buttercream to a resealable plastic bag. Snip a 1/4-inch opening from one bottom corner of each plastic bag. Using the yellow buttercream, pipe a large hollow square on each brownie. Using the red buttercream, pipe a circle in the center of the square. Top with a squiggle of the green buttercream over the red circle.
• Brush reserved top halves of cupcakes lightly with water. Sprinkle with nonpareils, pressing to adhere. Top frosted brownies with cupcake tops to create cupcake burgers.
• Preheat broiler.
• Using a crinkle-cut knife, slice pound cake into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Cut each slice into a 1/2-inch-thick strip. Place pound cake strips on a baking sheet and transfer to broiler. Broil until golden and toasted, 30 seconds. Drizzle pound cake fries with red buttercream and serve with hamburger cupcakes.

HAMBURGER CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F (175 C). Spray your cupcake pans well with nonstick cooking spray-silicone pans recommended if possible. Do not add paper liners. Prepare the yellow cake mix according to package directions, and divide the batter into 12 jumbo cupcakes or 24 regular cupcakes.
• Bake the cupcakes according to the package directions, and let them cool once out of the oven. Remove them carefully from the pans.
• Line a 9x13 pan with foil or parchment, and spray well with nonstick cooking spray. Prepare the brownie mix according to package directions and bake as instructed. Let the brownies cool completely.
• Divide the frosting equally between two bowls. Color one bowl with red food coloring so that it resembles ketchup. Depending on your food coloring, you might want to mix a little black or brown coloring in to deepen the red shade.
• Color the second bowl with yellow food coloring to make it look like mustard. You can add a touch of orange or red to make it more mustard-y if you'd like.
• Place the shredded sweetened coconut in a zip-top plastic bag, and add a few drop of green food coloring.
• Knead the bag between your hands to distribute the color, until you have bright green coconut "lettuce."
• Slice the hulled strawberries widthwise to create 1/4-inch thick strawberry rounds.
• Use a round circular cutter to cut circles out of the brownies to make the "patties." You can press together the brownie scraps and cut out more circles to make as many as you need-it doesn't matter if the rounds look perfect since they'll be covered by all the other burger ingredients.
• Slice each cupcake in half. If they seem a little too tall to be buns, trim them from the middle to make them bun-sized.
• Pipe a squiggle of yellow frosting all around the edge, peeking out from the side, to look like mustard.
• Lay strawberry slices on top of the yellow frosting. Top the strawberries with a thin layer of frosting so the brownie has something to stick to.
• Set a brownie patty on top of the strawberries.
• Add a squiggle of red frosting around the edge to look like ketchup.
• Press a generous layer of green coconut on top of the red frosting.
• Add the top half of the cupcake. Brush the top of each cupcake with corn syrup (you can thin it out with water if it's too thick to easily work with) and sprinkle with a generous pinch of sesame seeds.
• Stick a frilled toothpick through the cupcake, and the transformation into hamburgers is complete!
• Serve these within 2 hours of assembly, since the fresh berries will gradually soften the cupcakes. If you use canned frosting, these can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days. If you use homemade frosting with butter, I recommend refrigerating them in an airtight container, and letting them come to room temperature before serving.
