Pickle Cupcakes Actually Exist and You Can Make Them at Home
Ingredients
  • subheading: For the cupcake ingredients, you'll need all-purpose flour, baking powder, kosher salt, butter, sugar, sour cream, eggs, pickle juice, and chopped pickles. The juice is enough to gather from a pickle jar, so make sure you keep any extra. It's also delicious to drink. Why have a normal cupcake when you can have a pickle one?:
  • If you're making a huge batch of these babies for a holiday party or a baby shower, it's best to buy pickle juice by the gallon, and we love this Texas-born-and-bred brand you can find on Amazon.com. For the icing, which is always the best part, you'll make a cream cheese icing with butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, bourbon, and salt. Don't forget your pickle slices to garnish your neat little pickle desserts.
  • You could swap in a vanilla buttercream recipe if you don't want a cream cheese-based one, though the sour cream probably adds depth to the pickle juice. It provides a good fat content to pair with the vinegar-like taste. Delish doesn't recommend this, but we suggest swigging some of that bourbon before your first bite. Unless you're making this to satisfy a weird pregnancy craving, in which case it's best to avoid the alcohol.
