Black sesame cupcakes with matcha buttercream
Cupcakes and muffins
Japanese cuisine

We were starting to worry that cupcakes were becoming passé, but Molly Yeh has given them new life with the help of black sesame seeds, our new favorite flavor. By distilling the nutty toastiness of black sesame seeds in cupcake form, she's created a treat that, in her words, is "delightfully unique without being too weird or inaccessible." Since it can be hard to tell when black sesame seeds are toasted, buy them pretoasted from an Asian market or gourmet grocer. Reprinted from the Food52 Baking book.
