How To Make Baklava...CUPCAKES! | Cupcake Jemma

You know I love to Cupcakeify things and this is my latest Cupcakeification. It is a Baklava, but not as you know it. It might not have filo pastry but it has tonnes of flavour. Give it a go! How do you make Baklava? I have no idea, but one thing I DO know is how to make a tasty cupcake.
Ingredients...
For the Pistachio Sponge -
125g unsalted butter, soft
125g caster sugar
125g self raising flour
1/4 tsp bicarbonate of soda
2 lg eggs
25g pistachio paste ()
1.5 tbsp milk
For the Honey Caramel -
105g caster sugar
120ml water
170g local honey*
200g double cream
(*check the label. If it says its made from a blend of honeys, that will mean that it's not a pure honey from one area but could contain honeys from all over the world. Local Farmers Markets are a great place to find local honeys and they all taste so different!)
For the SMB -
2 lg egg whites
150g caster sugar
200g soft unsalted butter
2-3 tbs pistachio paste
Extra chopped pistachios for sprinklin'!
