Where in the Word is Bakingdom? Stroopwafel Cupcakes {Updated}

Friday, July 12, 2013 by Darla

This giveaway is now closed. Thank you for participating!

Stroopwafel Cupcakes with Salted Caramel Buttercream | ©BakingdomThis is it, my friends. This is your final clue for Where in the World is Bakingdom?

And it’s a doozy. I mean, really. It basically gives the whole game away. That’s why I saved it for last. 😉

Best for last.

Not just because it’s totally the giveaway clue, but also because these cupcakes are crazy amazing.

Stroopwafel Cupcakes | ©BakingdomI had my first stroopwafel just a few short weeks ago when my friend, Tina, learned where we’re moving to. She immediately sent me a wonderful little care package full of goodies, and my favorite, by far, was the stroopwafel.

Stroopwafels are these very thin, soft, yet firm, little waffle cookies. There’s actually two of them, and sandwiched between them…guess what there is. Caramel. Delicious, sticky, slightly salty, caramel goodness. It’s the perfect cookie. I want to buy a little bitty waffle iron…you know, the kind you make waffle cones with…and start baking my own stroopwafel cookies all day. Every day.

Salted Caramel Stroopwafel Cupcakes | ©BakingdomSince I don’t have a little waffle cone maker, yet, I made cupcakes instead.

Even though there wasn’t any cinnamon in the stroopwafel cookies I had, I felt like it was a flavor that existed happily in the stroopwafel world, so I added it to my cupcakes. I also used browned butter in the cupcakes, as opposed to plain, because I knew it would add the caramelized depth of flavor that you get in a wafel cookie.

Salted Caramel Stroopwafel Cupcake | ©BakingdomThen, I stirred some of my homemade salted caramel into some of my favorite buttercream. Because when would that ever be a wrong choice??

A few slices of tasty stroopwafel cookies and a little drizzle of caramel, and you have a new contender for the top five best cupcakes I’ve made thus far.

Yes, they’re that good. They’re super easy, too. The cupcakes took less than 30 minutes to make, even with baking time, and the frosting was less than 10 minutes. It helps to have the caramel already on hand, but if you don’t want to make it from scratch, then store-bought caramel works beautifully. Furthermore, these cupcakes can easily be replaced with a boxed mix, just stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon and you’re good to go!

Enjoy!

Cinnamon Browned Butter Cupcakes
with Salted Caramel Buttercream
Makes 1 dozen standard cupcakes

Ingredients

FOR THE CUPCAKES
1 1/2 cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (100 grams) sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick or 113 grams) unsalted butter, browned
1/2 cup (113 grams) sour cream
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract

FOR THE FROSTING
1/2 cup (1 stick or 113 grams) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup salted caramel sauce
2 cups (250 grams) confectioners€™ sugar
pinch of salt
2 to 3 teaspoons (10-15 ml)heavy cream
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract

To make the cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees (180 C). Line a muffin pan with cupcake papers; set aside.

In a large bowl, or the bowl of a standing mixer, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the butter, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla and beat until smooth. Scrape the bowl, making sure there are no streaks of flour remaining (do not over mix).

Place two tablespoons of batter in each of the paper liners in the prepared muffin pan.

Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Transfer to a wire cooling rack and allow to cool completely before frosting.

To make the frosting: In a large bowl, or the bowl of a standing mixer, beat the butter and caramel together for 3 minutes. Beat in the sugar and salt until combined. Add 2 teaspoons heavy cream, and whisk on high for 4 minutes, until light and fluffy. If the frosting is too thick, add more cream, 1/2 teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached.

Stir in the vanilla.

  2. Shelan says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    I guessed Turkey, but you are definitely going to the Netherlands!

  3. Beka says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    Since my other guess wasn’t right, after seeing this clue:-), I’m guessing the Netherlands!:-) Now I need to make these cupcakes!:-)

  4. Amelia says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    Since the first clue I’d guessed the Netherlands, but for some reason I didn’t comment!! I can see why this would be a particularly difficult move! Good luck with it all! I’m sure you’ll make the most of it!

  5. Sabrina says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:13 pm

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:18 pm

    I cannot believe you are off to the Netherlands!!! So awesome! To be specific, {and yes, I did research it a little} stroopwafel’s origin is said to be from Gouda in the Netherlands….or at least that is what Google says. 🙂

  12. Birgit says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:18 pm

    Belgium!

  13. Alanna S says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:19 pm

    Netherlands!

    I’ve always wanted to visit there.
    Have a blast and I look forward to hearing all about it.

  14. Armindy M says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:21 pm

    Aww, I said Belgium first but I agree with everyone that it’s definitely Netherlands now. I’m sure you’ll have a blast there and I’m definitely marking this recipe to try later. It sounds delicious. 🙂

  15. Elizabeth Wilcox says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:23 pm

    Definitely the Netherlands! Home of my ancestors!

  16. Jessica says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:23 pm

    I still think I am right-Netherlands!

  17. Britt says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:25 pm

    Has to be the Netherlands! Is is specifically Gouda where they originated? So exciting and scary at the same time!

  18. Megan says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:26 pm

    NETHERLANDS!!!

  19. Kathy Clevenger says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:28 pm

    You are in the Netherlands.

  20. AndreaClaire says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:29 pm

    Netherlands. Now, is it actually Gouda that you’re going to?

  21. Kerri says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:29 pm

    The Netherlands! Have fun!!

  22. Cynthia Vinoski says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:29 pm

    Netherlands! Wonderful!

  23. Ginny says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:29 pm

    I had guessed Guam, but now I’m going with Netherlands.

  24. Gillian says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:30 pm

    The Netherlands!

  25. Fiona says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:31 pm

    I loved the Netherlands you will have so much fun there. It’s a beautiful place

  26. Monique says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:31 pm

    The Netherlands—how exciting! 😀

  27. Laura says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:33 pm

    You are going to the Netherlands. My cousins live there and brought us some of these cookies. Heavenly.

  28. Liana N says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:33 pm

    I’m gonna take a stab at things and say Gouda in the Netherlands.

  29. Anna says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:35 pm

    Now I feel stupid for not commenting before, because when I read ‘poppy seed’ in the title two days ago, I immediately thought “Netherlands!” – my second guess would have been Italy, because of the lemons, but those are way less country specific than poppy seed. At least I have a shot today! 🙂
    And wow, the Netherlands. That’s actually not too far from here (Germany), yet I’ve never been there. It’s so beautiful, though, you’re really going to enjoy it, I think!!

  30. Jen W says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:38 pm

    The Netherlands!

  31. Renee @ Awesome on $20 says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:43 pm

    The Netherlands is going to be so awesome. Please take a train to Bruge and reenact In Bruge. Then take a ferry to Scotland and do EVERYTHING HP! Oh, and go to McDonald’s and order a Royale with Cheese. We have a dream of moving to Sweden. I would love to go to that part of the world.

  32. Laura R. says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:46 pm

    Netherlands…waffles, flowers, sightseeing, waffles…sounds like it will be an amazingly delicious adventure!

  33. EricaB says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:46 pm

    Ahh..the Netherlands! I need to get back there at some point! Enjoy 🙂

  34. Tracy says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:48 pm

    Netherlands!

  35. Julie says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:49 pm

    I guessed England first, but the Netherlands seems like the right place. That sounds amazing! I hope you enjoy your adventure.

  36. Jennie L. says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:49 pm

    Yay stroopwafels, they are the yummiest! Sticking with my guess of the Netherlands, specifically Rotterdam! I hope so, what fun adventures you will have. Can’t wait to live culinarily*-vicariously through your blog! Yummy cheese, good cocoa, new winter/Christmas traditions, tulip- and delft-inspired fun…not to mention crazy travels all over Europe!

    [*not a word, but it should be]

  37. Breezy says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:52 pm

    It’s definitely the Netherlands! How awesome for you!

  38. Ashley P says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:55 pm

    i say BELGIUM!

  39. Alice says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 1:57 pm

    Netherlands, maybe Rotterdam specifically?

  40. Amanda says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:00 pm

    Netherlands! Yay!

  41. Melody says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:00 pm

    This is so cute and looks absolutely delicious!

    Everyone keeps saying Netherlands, but I almost thought you were in Belgium …

  42. Michelle Bowers says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:03 pm

    I still say the Netherlands… maybe Gouda where the stroopwafel originated?

  43. Michelle Bowers says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:03 pm

    I Tweeted” I want to win a @Sur_La_Table gift card from @bakingdom! http://bakingdom.com/?p=13179 #WhereintheWorldisBakingdom” also!

  44. Angela Willis says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:07 pm

    Everyone says that you are going to the Netherlands! I am going to be specific and say HOLLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!

  45. Angela Willis says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:08 pm

    I follow you on Twitter and Tweeted about this post!

  46. Amanda says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:10 pm

    Tweeted too! @BusyBakingBee

  47. Kristina Toma says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:12 pm

    Yep, you’re definitely in the Netherlands! I remember traipsing along Amsterdam, eating a bag of bite-size mini stroopwafels. Oh, and the McDonald’s there have stroopwafel McFlurries!!

    Enjoy this move! You’re a very lucky lady!

    • Kristina Toma says

      Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:14 pm

      Oh! And when you get a fresh bag of stroofwafels, place one cookie on the top of a mug of freshly made coffee. The steam from the coffee will warm the caramel to soft gooey deliciousness, making the stroopwafel even more amazing.

  48. Linda says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:13 pm

    Ooh! The Netherlands! I wonder in which city you’re going to live! In Gouda, where stroopwafels are originally from? 🙂 Probably not!

  49. Valerie says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:23 pm

    Yeah! I do believe I’ve got it.
    Gouda, Netherlands.

    And check it out, I tweeted too. 😉

  50. Majinmoza says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:34 pm

    Netherlands! Waffles, waffles, waffles!!! Have fun girl!

  51. Mira @ Rhubarbandrosewater says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:36 pm

    Flowers and stroopwafels – must be the Netherlands! My grandparents live on the border to the Netherlands, the nature there is beautiful, however the cuisine is sometimes a little boring, at least in the countryside, so it is good if you bring your baking equipment and creativity with you! In Amsterdam, however, we always had delicious food!

  52. Mira @ Rhubarbandrosewater says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:41 pm

    I also tweeted (_rosewater_) 🙂

  53. Nancy P.@thebittersideofsweet says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:42 pm

    So after the last clue I looked some stuff online and thought it might be the Netherlands but after this I am convinced its the Netherlands!

  54. Vicki @ WITK says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:43 pm

    I had my first stroopwafel in Amsterdam, so I’m guessing that’s it!

  55. Nancy P.@thebittersideofsweet says

    I tweeted this!! @bittersidesweet

  56. Vicki @ WITK says

  57. Caroline says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:46 pm

    The Netherlands!!

  58. Nikki says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:46 pm

    So excited your coming to my home country. Curious to see how you like it!

  59. RobynR says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:47 pm

    Netherlands (although we found a stroopwafel like cookie only with chocolate inside in Japan)

  60. Amy says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:56 pm

    Hey, Darla!

    It sounds the the Netherlands is the consensus. I’m impressed with all those people who got it with your first clue!! You’ll be close enough to London to wander over there and see the studio tour of the Harry Potter movies! I’m going in September. I’ll let you know if it’s worth it. One of the other commenters suggested a visit to Scotland to see the real locations, which also sounds fabulous. Enjoy Europe!! And keep blogging, please!!

  61. Ashley says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 2:59 pm

    Amsterdam!

  62. Lisa L. says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 3:01 pm

    Now I totally know!! The NETHERLANDS!! What fun! Thank you for yet another great giveaway! Now off to make these cupcakes! 🙂

  63. Terri Wade says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 3:07 pm

    GirlI was way off.

    I’m from England and was hoping that you were going to be living for being stationed in England but after this last clue I will concede that you and you hub will be stationed in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
    All I can think if the story if Austin Powers telling where he was born and how he was raised.
    I love your blog……these cupakes are on the menu for Sunday dinner..

  76. Sarah says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 4:22 pm

  77. Nancy F says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 4:23 pm

    Enjoy the Netherlands…and traveling Europe! Gotta have these cupcakes soon…

  78. Kim C. says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 4:39 pm

    My guess is Gouda in the Netherlands. If I am right, that’s awesome and I wish you the best.

  79. Kesi says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 4:40 pm

    So apparently it’s going to be the Netherlands! Hopefully Amsterdam, which is a gorgeous city. Can’t wait to see what happens with your move, and hope it goes smoothly. 😀

  93. Sherri says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 6:06 pm

    Have to agree with everyone here. Looks like Portland is losing you the Netherlands. Hope the move goes well and I look forward to seeing the many things that you discover and share.

    Netherlands. I’d love, love, love to go there someday! I’m a history buff loving the WWII era, so basically anywhere in Europe (and even Britain) is on my “to-visit” bucket list. And, naturally, the foodie in me adores different places and cultures!

    By the way, they were first made in Gouda (hmmm cheese), Netherlands.

  103. Ruthy says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 7:30 pm

    I originally thought Belgium, but now I’m thinking the Netherlands! These look amazing! Have fun!! 🙂

    Noo, I was wrong! 🙁 Well, I got Europe right at least. I guess the Netherlands this time! BUT NOW I WILL NARROW IT. I don’t know which branch of the military your husband is in, so, I am guessing you going to Brunssum or Schinnen.

  110. Faith @ Pixie Dust Kitchen says

    Saturday, July 13, 2013 at 9:04 pm

    I’m DEFINITELY saying the Netherlands. Specifically Amsterdam! Good luck with the move! Moving is always hard, but especially international moves.

  122. Djoeke says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 3:28 am

    I hope you will have a great time in the Netherlands! 🙂
    I live in Amsterdam, it’s a amazing city! (I’m curious to which city you’ll move)
    Also typically dutch are ‘stroopkoeken’, they are almost the same as ‘stroopwafels’, but instead of a thin waffle cookie, you have more like a shortbread cookie. (like this: http://www.daelmansbanket.nl/our-range/caramel-biscuits/?lang=en )

  123. Eva @ Eva Bakes says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 3:43 am

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 6:05 am

    I was saying California, but the obvious answer is the Netherlands…unless its the town of Solvang!

  131. Maaike says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 6:23 am

    The Netherlands!! My own home country :-). I live in Amsterdam, but the best town in the Netherlands to buy stroopwafels is Gouda. I even think stroopwafels are originally from Gouda and there are still a lot of stroopwafel bakeries in Gouda (where they ONLY bake stroopwafels and nothing else).
    I hope you enjoy the Netherlands and get to know a little of our own baked goods, such as tompouce (we eat it with orange icing to honour our Royal Family), Dutch apple pie, stroopkoeken (a variation on stroopwafels), Jodekoeken, boterkoek (some kind of reallyyyy buttery cake) and much more to enjoy!

  132. Serene says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 7:25 am

  137. Judy says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 9:56 am

    I guess I’m going to have to go a bit northeast and change my original guess of Belgium to the Netherlands for this one….

  138. Katie says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 10:12 am

    Sounds like you are heading to Gouda in the Netherlands.

  139. Kate says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 11:28 am

    Definitely the Netherlands, but perhaps more specifically Gouda??? (by the way, if you are on a train there you should be listening for How-dah, not Goo-dah!)

  140. Katie W says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 11:48 am

  141. Sara @ Confectionary Tales says

  142. Pauline says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 12:44 pm

    You are going to Holland!!! This is where I was born, lived for 12 years and still have family. SO JELOUSE!!

  143. Suzan says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 1:05 pm

    The Netherlands! Be sure to try bokkenpootjes, poffertjes, moorkoppen, Zeeuwse bolussen and a tompouce (or ‘tompoes’ in a very Dutch way of writing it. Buy them in a bakery, those at Hema aren’t the ‘real’ ones to me) in Holland. Also celebrate ‘Koningsdag’ (used to be Koninginnedag (Queensday)) while you’re here. Have a safe trip!

  144. Shaima says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 1:07 pm

  156. Kathy says

  157. Vicki Sianez says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 8:46 pm

  162. Andrea says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 9:53 pm

    You’re definitely moving to the Netherlands! Can you find those cookies here in the states?

  163. Megly says

    Sunday, July 14, 2013 at 9:57 pm

    Ooh, the Netherlands? So exciting! My mom brought these back when she visited a few years ago and it was hard not to down the whole box at once 😉 I’ve heard you’re supposed to set them on top of a mug of hot coffee so the steam melts the caramel inside. Need to try that next time….

    You’re going to the Netherlands?!?! Oh my goodness, sooooooo jealous! My best friend growing up was Dutch (she actually lives in Holland now) and I remember having stroopwafel with her. As well as the word poches (sp?) which is completely unhelpful as it means legs in Dutch. When will I ever need to use that word without at least needing one other word to go with it?

    Congratulations on being sent to a beautiful country and HAVE FUN!!! I expect to see amazing photos of your travels and all the delicious food over there! 😀

  194. Kellie M. says

    The Netherlands…I feel silly now going on about Belgium (although Belgium also has really good waffles, and you can get your hands on stroowafels there), but the Netherlands makes more sense because that’s where stroowafels come from…Plus flowers and sightseeing…yeah…
