Instructions

  1. Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with baking cups. In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder and salt. Add butter, milk and vanilla; beat on medium-low for 2 minutes or until well combined. Add egg whites; beat on medium for 2 minutes. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a tester inserted into the centre of a cupcake comes out clean. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
  2. Caramel Corn: Stir together brown sugar, butter and corn syrup in a medium heatproof bowl. Microwave on High for 2 minutes. Stir in baking soda. Arrange popcorn on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with caramel; stir to coat. Bake, stirring once, for 8 minutes. Cool until set; break into clusters.
  3. Frosting: Beat butter with whipping cream and vanilla until smooth; gradually beat in icing sugar until fluffy. Pipe frosting onto each cupcake; garnish with clusters of caramel corn.
