Chocolate Cup Cake

Little Brother turned all of 1/2 year today, so we had to celebrate. And Big Brother decided on cup cakes. Chocolate ones.

So I turned to trusty Trine. And found this recipe. And followed it almost to the dot. I just added more chocolate. Of course.

For 12 cupcakes you need:

125 grams soft butter
175 grams sugar
2 eggs
1,5 dl milk
250 grams flour
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons baking powder
100 grams dark chocolate

Cream the sugar and butter in your kitchen machine. Add the eggs one by one. Then add all the restof the ingredients except for the chocolate. Chop the chocolate into rods and poke two or three pieces into the cakes.

Bake at 175 degrees celcius for 18-20 minutes.

They are moist, and the pockets of chocolate are yummy.



For some reason cup cakes are mostly known as muffins in Norway. Anyone with some travelling under their belt know that muffins are more healthy, mostly eaten for breakfast, and can even be savoury.

Needless to say, Little Brother didn't get to eat any cake and had to settle for this:



You be the judge.
