Mocca Cupcakes With Dried Fruit

• 6 3/8 tablespoons flour
• 1 teaspoon dry yeast
• 6 1/4 tablespoons cornstarch
• 7 tablespoons butter at room temperature
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/4 cup strong black coffee cold
• 1/2 cup dried figs cut into pieces
• 8 dates sliced into pieces
• 1/2 cup hazelnuts coarsely chopped
• butter for greasing baking molds

1. Grease muffin molds with melted butter or use paper or silicone "hats" (I did not have enough silicone ones, so I used paper cups as well).
2. Mix flour with cornstarch and yeast in a separate bowl.
3. Beat butter and sugar until smooth and creamy.
4. Add egg and beat some more until well combined.
5. Stir in flour with yeast and cornstarch.
6. Add coffee, mix until smooth and creamy.
7. Add figs, dates and nuts and stir gently.
8. Fill half of each muffin cups with the mixture (or, if you want fewer cakes, fill each cup to the full).
9. Bake little cakes in oven for about 25 minutes at 180u0b0C or until they are done (the trick with a toothpick!).
10. When baked, allow cakes to cool slightly and then remove them from the mold. Serve lukewarm or cool.
