I received a lot of requests for Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes (北海道牛奶蛋糕). However it is NOT a Japanese sweet. LOL
I don't know why it is named Hokkaido (sounds like a Japanese sweet)! haha
Anyhow, I asked my viewers and they showed me the pictures and the websites, then I finally got an idea that these are chiffon cupcakes with custard whipped cream filling.
Based on that info, I created this recipe. Sorry if this is not what you want… BUT my opinion is… AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS XD My darling said I can sell these cupcakes. LOL Well… I think I'm gonna make this again!!!

How to Make Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcakes with Vanilla Custard Whipped Cream
Difficulty: Unexpectedly Easy
Time: 2-3hrs (incl. cooling time)
Number of servings:
8-10 (5cm/2inch) muffin cups
12-14 (5cm/2inch) cupcake cups
Necessary Equipment:
electric mixer
Ingredients:
((Egg Yolk Batter))
3 egg yolks
20g (0.7oz.) granulated sugar
40ml cooking oil
40ml milk
60g (2.1oz.) cake flour
((Meringue))
3 egg whites
40g (1.4oz.) granulated sugar
((Vanilla Custard Cream))
1 tbsp. cake flour
1 tbsp. corn starch
40g (1.4oz.) granulated sugar
200ml milk
2 egg yolks
15g (0.5oz.) butter
a few drops of vanilla extract
((Whipped Cream))
100ml heavy whipping cream (fresh cream) *chilled
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
((Finish))
powdered sugar (confectioner's sugar)
Directions:
((Preparation))
Separate the eggs and place the whites in a large bowl. Let your egg whites sit in the refrigerator to keep them cold until you are ready to use them (which makes them easier to whip).
((Egg Yolk Batter))
In a bowl, place egg yolks and sugar. Beat them with an electric mixer until white like mayonnaise. Add cooking oil and milk, then mix well with an electric mixer. Sift in cake flour and mix well with a whisk.
((Meringue))
In a large bowl, whip egg whites and half of the granulated sugar with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Then add the rest of the granulated sugar and whip them until firm peaks form. *If it's thick enough, you can turn the bowl upside down without it sliding out.
((Combine and Bake))
Add 1/3 Meringue into the Egg Yolk Batter and blend well with a whisk. Then add the rest of the Meringue 1/2 at a time and mix well with a spatula. Preheat the oven to 170C (338F). Spoon the mixture into the cups up to 70% full. Bake muffin cups for 20-25 minutes. Bake cupcake cups for 15-20 minutes. When they are done, place them on a wire rack and leave to cool.
((Vanilla Custard Cream))
Place flour, corn starch, and granulated sugar in a bowl, then mix well with a whisk. Add a bit of milk and mix well. Then add the rest and mix well again. Add egg yolks and mix well. Strain the mixture with a strainer and transfer to a saucepan. Add butter, put on low, stir constantly, and stop the heat when the cream starts to thicken. Mix well with the remaining heat. Add a few drops of vanilla extract to finish. Leave to cool or put in the fridge to cool completely.
((Whipped Cream))
Combine fresh cream and granulated in a dry, clean bowl. Float the bottom of the bowl in ice water, whisk the cream until it forms a stiff peak.
((Finish))
Add the Whipped Cream into the Vanilla Custard Cream 1/3 at a time and mix well with a whisk. Fit a pastry bag with a small round tip, and fill with the cream. Pipe the cream into the chiffon cupcakes and dust with powdered sugar.
You can either serve immediately or chill in the fridge before serving!
