Step One: Prepare The Cupcake Pan or Muffin Pan

Preheat the air fryer to 320 degrees F using the air fryer setting. Place the cupcake sheets into muffin molds.

Step Two: Prepare The Cupcake Batter

Mix the egg, sugar, yogurt, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Sift the flour, cocoa powder, pinch of salt, and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients to the mixture and stir with a spatula (do not over-mix!)

Add the gel red food coloring little by little. Divide the mixture into the cupcake sheets. 

Step Three: Air Fry Christmas Cupcakes

Bake for 10-12 minutes, in the air fryer, at 320 degrees F, using the air fryer setting. Before removing the cupcakes from the air fryer, test them with a toothpick or a knife. If the middle is dry, take it out from the air fryer.

Rest for 15 minutes to cool down before decorating.

How To Make Homemade Cream Cheese

Beat the softened butter, vanilla extract, and cream cheese until it gets smooth. Add the powdered sugar and whisk for 3 minutes. Then, take the frosting to the piping bag and decorate them as you wish. Keep it in the refrigerator.

How To Make Snow Globe Gelatins

Soak gelatins in cold water for 5 minutes. Squeeze the excess water of gelatins and put them in a saucepan.  Pour 5 tbsp of cold water over it. Stir on the stove until it melts (do not overheat!) Inflate the balloons.  Cover all balloons with gelatin. Let it dry for 10 minutes. Then, cover all the balloons again. Let it dry for 24 hours. After it dried, pop the balloons and remove them from the gelatins. Decorate the colorful marzipans as you wish. Combine all the decorations with the cupcakes.

Pro Tips For The Best Christmas Cupcakes

Here are some pro tips for making the best Christmas cupcakes:

• Use room temperature ingredients: Make sure all the ingredients are at room temperature before mixing. This will help create a smooth and even batter.
• Measure accurately: Use measuring cups and spoons to ensure accurate measurements. This will ensure that the cupcakes bake evenly and taste delicious.
• Do not overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cupcakes tough and dense. Mix until just combined.
• Preheat the air fryer: Preheat the air fryer before adding the cupcakes to ensure even cooking.
• Use a piping bag to frost the cupcakes: Using a piping bag to frost them will give them a professional look and ensure that the frosting is evenly distributed.
• Add festive decorations: Add festive decorations, such as snow globes, candy canes, or sprinkles, to make the cupcakes look festive and fun.
• Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before decorating: Decorating them before they are completely cool can cause the frosting to melt or slide off.
