0:56

1:02
you like to come be on my show and he
1:04

1:07
here he is so what are you doing we're
1:10
going to do a truffle filled
1:12
fried cupcake
1:14
that basically takes everything you love
1:17
about everything you love
1:18
and makes it everything you love
1:21
we're just gonna have a great big love
1:22
in yes this is one big love fest well
1:25
put me to work and i'll help you okay
1:27
well what we're gonna do first is i'm
1:29
gonna have you mix all the dry
1:30
ingredients one and three quarter cups
1:32
of sugar okay and we have two and three
1:34
quarter cups of cake flour and about a
1:36
tablespoon of baking powder
1:38
okay what i did over here i separated my
1:41
uh nine eggs
1:43
my yolks and my whites
1:46
this is called a little salt
1:48
uh yeah a teaspoon of salt
1:50
okay so what i'm doing i'm adding a cup
1:53
of water to my nine yolks over here okay
1:56
and then once you've got that combined
1:58
can i possibly have you put two
2:01
tablespoons of butter now i know you get
2:04
a little carried away
2:05
i'm asking for two tablespoons you're
2:07
just you're asking for just two just two
2:11
uh into the little pot and we'll melt
2:13
that
2:13
okay
2:15
i'll try to be as accurate and basically
2:17
what we're doing we're just making
2:19
a very simple chiffon cake cupcake okay
2:22
only two tablespoons of butter can't go
2:26
anywhere without being made fun of
2:28
honey i'm the one that gets made fun of
2:30
all the time
2:32
now what we're gonna do is combine the
2:34
water and the egg yolk into the dry
2:36
ingredients so i'm going to risk that
2:39
and and we're just going to whisk we're
2:41
not going to pull out an electric mixer
2:43
and use it i'm going to actually use the
2:44
electric mixer
2:46
for the let's make my meringue okay and
2:50
it's coming together easy yeah it's a
2:52
very very simple recipe and this is
2:54
probably one of the easiest cupcake
2:55
recipes you'll ever make i mean this is
2:57
so so easy
2:59
and you just want to get this to a soft
3:01
to medium peak
3:03
keep it a nice light airy cake
3:05
and does that butter i just pour it in
3:07
here right into there
3:09
so this is almost come together well
3:11
your cupcakes were phenomenal i was
3:14
actually thinking about teaming up with
3:16
a
3:16
dentist and
3:20
let me tell you something funny tarek
3:23
my dentist here in town when you leave
3:27
he brings you a warm fresh baked
3:30
chocolate chip cookie
3:35
i said you're talking about job security
3:38
so we're going to fold that right into
3:40
the ingredients that you have okay you
3:42
can fold it with the whisk and that
3:44
incorporates it very very nicely and
3:46
then the second portion we're going to
3:47
use a spatula okay
3:51
you very simply want to come in from the
3:53
center
3:54
and fold it over
3:55
so paul i see you do have a built-in
3:58
deep fryer tell me some of the things
3:59
that you have deep fried
4:02
oh listen i've i've
4:04
i've about deep fried at all honey i
4:07
fried lasagna i fried macaroni and
4:09
cheese what was your favorite thing i've
4:11
fried cake
4:13
i have even fried butter
4:18
i i don't know where to go with that
4:21
well you go in your mouth oh
4:24
you know i've got to taste the batter
4:28
and
4:29
perfectly delicious well thank you so
4:32
you're going to spray the tins and we're
4:35
going to load these up i'm going to give
4:36
this just a little spray just to ensure
4:39
that these come out nice and easy yeah
4:42
and then if i can have you start
4:44
spooning okay now what do you use to
4:47
spoon your cupcakes up with
4:50
just a regular spoon uh-huh and we're
4:53
probably gonna fill these three quarters
4:55
of the way okay
4:56
the batter is beautiful all right well
4:58
i'm gonna have to
5:00
scoop this with something else so once
5:03
you do that uh-huh i'm gonna go ahead
5:05
and uh
5:06
work on the ganache okay
5:09
well i'm going to slip right in here and
5:11
i'm going to try not to make such a big
5:13
mess
5:14
now see that works a lot better for me
5:17
towel so there you go so now for the
5:20
filling on this we're just going to make
5:21
a very simple ganache which basically
5:24
comprises of a cup of chocolate yeah any
5:27
semi-sweet chocolate but very simply
5:29
it's a cup of chocolate and a cup of
5:30
heavy cream
5:31
and then okay see how much faster that
5:33
was for me
5:35
using a dipper
5:37
all right do you want to put these in
5:38
the oven yeah so i'm going to go
5:40
bacon uh 350 oven
5:43
and he's going to go for about 20
5:45
minutes
5:46
and then in the meantime
5:48
i have my cup of heavy cream okay and
5:51
we're gonna bring this to a boil and
5:53
then we add the cream to the chocolate
5:55
we're gonna let it melt because you are
5:58
the keeper of the butter you'll be
6:00
adding one tablespoon of butter into the
6:04
ganache it helps actually set the
6:07
ganache up just a little bit and it
6:08
gives it a nice creamy quality
6:11
i can't imagine that it would hurt oh no
6:14
the one thing it won't do is hurt okay
6:16
so this is blended that looks delicious
6:20
oh my gosh i love ganache
6:25
so plastic wrap directly on top okay
6:28
that way you don't form a skin uh-huh
6:30
but if it's warm just leave a little bit
6:33
of breathing room for that heat to
6:35
escape well so we're on the way
6:38
well halfway though don't go anywhere
6:39
y'all it's deep fried cupcakes
6:43
getting good y'all
6:46
coming up tarik finds the weight of my
6:48
heart when he deep fries these cupcakes
6:51
you gotta love it
6:54
then my friend bubble stops by to help
6:56
us make a salad that is full of all kind
6:58
of surprises this is like getting a
7:00
prize in the crackerjack box
7:02
and later y'all we dress these delicious
7:05
chops in chocolate
7:09
i so hope y'all are enjoying the show
7:11
and if you do be sure to click like
7:15
subscribe and the notification bell
7:18
so you'll never miss a video and we'll
7:20
be right back after the break
7:26
we are gonna deliver to america as we
7:28
promised deep fried cupcakes so first
7:32
thing i'm going to do is i'm going to
7:33
haul these out oh gosh they look so
7:36
pretty and we're going to put the
7:38
ganache in there and in the meantime
7:40
you're going to start making uh some
7:42
batter okay some batter yeah and
7:44
actually this is a little bit of a cross
7:45
between uh fish and chip batter and the
7:47
tempura basso
7:48
well i saw you putting out beer now i
7:51
love beer batter it's a fabulous
7:54
fabulous batter and this way you get
7:55
that little bit of yeasty multi hopping
7:59
to combine with the sweet so you get a
8:01
little bit of that savory element to it
8:03
but then you forget about it real quick
8:04
once you've tried that there's there's a
8:06
method to his madness y'all yeah it's
8:08
mostly madness um so what i'm doing i'm
8:11
cutting the middle out of the cupcake
8:14
uh-huh and i'm just gonna stick my
8:16
finger in there to make a little bit of
8:17
a cavity make a little bit of a hole
8:20
yeah
8:21
and that way we're gonna put these tops
8:23
back on once the ganache goes in in the
8:25
meantime can i have you measure out a
8:26
cup and a half of all-purpose flour and
8:30
a cup a half of rice flour
8:32
okay and the reason i use the rice flour
8:34
and not all
8:36
regular flour is it gives a little bit
8:38
of crispiness oh it does it lightens it
8:40
up a little bit rice flour can you find
8:43
that at the grocery store some of the
8:45
specialty grocery stores you should be
8:46
able to find or any health food store
8:48
you should find it very easily well i
8:50
just love the thought of where that rice
8:53
flour's going to take this and you just
8:55
wait and see the results nice and crisp
8:59
and what i'm going to do is the ganache
9:01
that we had made that's set out and set
9:04
up a little bit
9:05
i'm going to put into a pastry bag
9:08
i mean getting right down in there
9:11
you want to get as much of that
9:12
chocolate yes don't skimp now mine oh no
9:15
i promise you you'll see i like a lot of
9:17
filling in the center
9:19
i've got a cup and a half now of each of
9:22
our flour what else goes in there three
9:25
tablespoons of sugar
9:27
okay
9:28
half a teaspoon of baking powder
9:32
tang
9:34
and the one egg
9:37
now pour it yes this is actually key so
9:40
you don't lose any of your filling okay
9:43
the bit that i cut off yeah you set that
9:45
right back into the chocolate and it's
9:46
going to fuse back together yes so when
9:49
we go to fry these you don't lose any of
9:51
that gooey goodness of chocolate good
9:54
cause i don't want to lose a drop
9:56
all right so go ahead and add the egg
9:58
yes now this next pot is for
10:00
professionals only
10:01
[Laughter]
10:05
well i'm not a professional so you do
10:07
that
10:10
it's a bottle and a half standard 12
10:12
ounce bottle
10:16
and about half a bottle i was going to
10:18
ask you what's
10:19
what is
10:24
i saw that
10:28
i saw that
10:29
are you going to grab a whisk
10:31
yeah i was gonna say all i see is a
10:33
spoon
10:35
the nice thing about this batter is you
10:37
can use it right away or you could let
10:38
it sit if you let it sit it thickens up
10:41
a little bit and it gives you a little
10:42
bit of a heavier coating but we can go
10:45
right away with that okay the next
10:46
important thing is
10:51
make sure you're ready
10:53
is that hot beer you're drinking i'm
10:56
english
10:57
oh y'all drink hot beer in england room
11:00
temperature room temperature
11:02
i'm going to set these should i be
11:04
flipping those yeah okay you ready to go
11:07
swimming let's go
11:08
we don't want our tops to come out on
11:10
the table to come off so just roll them
11:12
in there okay let them soak up a little
11:14
bit
11:16

11:24
gently uh-huh i don't want to burn my
11:26
sail 350 degrees is actually what we're
11:28
frying in peanut oil
11:33

that you earn
11:54
you have earned a
11:56
over-the-top
11:58
sinful treat

12:01
fall in that category
12:04

12:07
it up you can't even tell
12:09
tariq cut the top out of those y'all
12:12

12:17
taken the idea from new orleans beignets
12:19
that i just mounded with powdered sugar
12:22
i do like a little bit of powdered sugar
12:24
on these
12:25
we can serve this with some ice cream
12:27
okay do you want to just douse them in
12:29
it like that or
12:31
it's going to soak up and give a little
12:33
bit of sweet goodness to it
12:36
[Music]
12:39
