Cupcake Frenzy

I cant seem to get over baking cupcakes.. They are these tiny little messengers of happiness that can spruce up even the most sullen of moods!
Amazingly simple to make (seriously). These little babies are bound to bring you your daily dose of joy (and sugar high) 


Since I had just one egg at home, decided to make eggless ones and boy, did they rise to the occasion!


Here's what you need..


Plain Flour: 1 1/2 cups
Sugar: 1 cup
Baking Soda: 1 tsp
Baking Powder: 1/2 tbsp
Milk: 1 cup
Vegetable Oil: 1/2 cup
A generous splash of the best vanilla essence you can lay your hands on!












Sift and mix the dry ingredients together. Follow by adding milk, oil, vanilla essence and mix together well till you get a smooth, creamy mixture. You could add walnuts or chocolate chips at this stage.. I chose not to, since I was going plain vanilla..


Line up cupcake liners in a tray and pour in the mixture to about half of each cup .. (trust me, they will rise). 




Pop them in a pre-heated oven (200 degree centigrade) for around 18-20 minutes or till a toothpick comes out clean.. and let these beauties cool off on a wire rack.

Home Made Bliss!




Here's my attempt at dark chocolate muffins I tried out at home. Just getting started on baking so got them right after 2 tries, but all the mess was so totally worth it!
Will post the recipe soon!
