Choco Chocky Cupcakes

Hello!!! The receipe i'm going to share with you today is called Choco Chocky Cupcakes!!

They were a favourite amoung my classmates in secondary school, especially between Oviyum(chocolate lover), and my ex-partner in crime, Caroline. Ok now, enough with the talk! here's the receipe!!

Ingrediants:

- 100g/ 1 cup caster sugar

- 100g softened butter

- 100g/ 1 cup self-raising flour

- 3 tbs cocoa powder (might i recomend either Hersey's cocoa powder or Van Houten's cocoa powder)

- 2 eggs

-2 tbs milk

- 1/2 cup chocholate chips

Method:

1) Cream the butter and sugar using a hand held whisk or an elecric mixer.

2) Next add in the eggs, flour and cocoa powder and mix. Ensure that all the ingrediants are well incorparated.

3) Line a muffin tray with cupcake liners. Using an ice-cream scoop or any other laddle-like equiptment, half fill each cupcake liner with the cupcake batter.

4) Bake the cupcakes in the oven at 190 degree celcius fo 12-15 mins.

5) To check if the cakes are ready, insert a scewer/toothpic/satay stick into the baked cakes. The scewer should come out clean.

6) Allow the cupcakes to cool.

7) Indulge in its blissful taste.

I got this receipe from a book I bought from Bordes three years ago. It's called Cupcakes by Sue MacMahon. A really useful book. I modified the receipe a little, but I give you my word it tastes the same. Once you sink your teeth into the gooey, dense, chocolate cupcake, you'll find yourself closing your eyes, savouring every moment of eating it. You'll lick every morsel left on the cupcake liner.

When I made these Choco Chocky Cupcakes, i made a little too much batter. I decided to put the extra batter into a well greased cake tin and baked it for 15 mins at 180 degree celcius. I also whipped some cream using an electric machine, but you can do likewise using a hand whisk. I on the other hand, prefer to utillize the technology I have acquired, thank you very much. I even dazzled the choco cakes with a some heart-shaped sprinkles. All of the ingredants listed are readily available at any super market.

Well then, I hope that you do try this receipe out. It really is very rewarding. Cheerios!! :)
