Chocolate Walnut Mini Cupcakes

After so many years stayed in a rented house, I stopped baking for so many years... Finally, I have moved into my own house with an oven which allows me to bake whenever I want. Really very happy! I am doing what I have been liking all these while ♥ Hope I can learn to bake more delicious cakes for my lovely families in the near future ~

Last night, I took out the old-looking recipe book of mine with loads of dusts on it. The dusts were there since many years back and finally, I have decided to give it a clean! Browsing through the dusty recipe book brings back so much memories for me... I am missing those time when I baked together with my Mum and sisters back in Pontian!

07.05.2012: Today I tried out the Chocolate Walnut Cake recipe which I used to bake it many years ago... First attempt after so many years, and luckily they turned out successfully :) Hubby is the first lucky person who gets to taste it. He is a person who does not like to eat cakes, but then he is willing to try it out for me. Glad that he finds the cupcake taste nice! He says can bake for Kimi to try too ~
