How to cook?
Soft butter needs to be whipped with icing sugar, and then add cottage cheese and lemon juice. As a result, we should get a homogeneous smooth cream. We fill it with a pastry bag, wrap it up and leave it in the refrigerator for now. For the filling, you can take frozen blueberries, cherries, currants, strawberries or plums. In this recipe we will take the plum.
We continue to prepare cupcakes with filling inside. The recipe requires butter to combine with sugar and beat. As soon as the sugar crystals dissolve, add the eggs first, then the cream, milk and vanilla extract. Before adding flour, you need to sift it and add baking powder and salt to it. To mix everything. Combine it with an oil mixture or stir so that all lumps dissolve.
For baking cupcakes, it is best to take silicone molds that do not require oiling. With a spoon, you need to distribute the dough into forms, but not more than half the volume. Only such cupcakes will rise well. Put a filling on top of the center of each future cupcake. Defrost plums in advance and squeeze out a little to remove the liquid, otherwise the juice will flow and spoil the appearance, preventing the cake from baking well. Now add another tablespoon of dough on top of the filling, and in the center we make a little indentation so that they do not rise much. Cupcakes need to be put in a preheated oven to a temperature of 200 ° and bake them from 20 to 30 minutes until a golden crust appears. Carefully remove the prepared cupcakes from the molds and decorate with cream from a pastry bag. If desired, you can add pastry beads, flowers, berries or a leaf of mint. Keep in mind that this cream quickly starts to spread in the heat, so it is best to keep ready-made cupcakes in the refrigerator.

When the mass is smooth and lush, you need to set the mixer speed to medium and enter 1/2 of the previously prepared dry mixture. Mix everything again and add milk to this mixture. We continue to work as a mixer, bringing the mass to a homogeneous state, and only then pour the second half of the dry products into the mixture.

This mixture should thicken, but do not bring it to a boil. Remove from heat and add softened gelatin. Now cool to approximately 35 ° and add soft butter. Cut off the tops of the cupcakes, cut out the center and fill them with cream. Then put the cut off caps on top and put in the refrigerator. While they cool, you can prepare a cream - Swiss meringue.

Now you can remove it from the water bath. But work with the cream is not finished yet: you need to continue whipping for about 3-4 minutes until this mass cools down and very stable peaks appear that can be pulled into a thin thread.
