Chocolate Cupcakes

Kimi said he wanted to eat colourful 'Chocolate Cake'. The lazy Mummy lazy to make separate icing for the cake topping, so I decided to sprinkle some colourful sugarballs on top of the chocolate cake to make it looked colourful. Hope Kimi will like it!

Recipe:
100g Butter, softened
200g Sugar (I used Icing Sugar)
2 Eggs
3/4 tsp Vanilla essence
125ml cup milk (I replaced with Chocolate Milk)
1 tsp Baking soda
1/2 cup Boiling water (with 1 tsp Nescafe Classic Instant Coffee powder)
200g Flour
1/4 tsp Salt
3 tsp Baking powder
40g Cocoa powder

*Note: I change the coffee powder with Milo powder so that Kimi can eat the cake without caffeine.

Methods:
1) Sift flour, salt, baking powder and cocoa powder in bowl. Dissolve baking soda in milk.
2) Cream butter and sugar until light. Add essence and eggs, continue beating.
3) Add in the rest of the ingredients (milk, milo liquid and flour ingredients), beat till smooth.
4) Spoon batter into greased paper cases to 3/4 full.
5) Bake in a preheated oven at 150C for about 25 minutes or until skewer inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
6) Leave to cool on rack.

 




I adjusted a little bit from the original recipe to fit into Kimi's requirements :)
