Cupcakes.. no.. Muffins.

One night. i decided to make cupcakes. I found a recipe. and got to it.

So i started making.

This was a simple recipe taken from That’s Noice!

Ingredients

125g softened unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
150g caster sugar
3 eggs (mine were large eggs)
225g self raising flour
60ml milk

Directions

This is really simple.

In a big bowl, dump all the ingredients in.

Beat the mixture with an electric mixer. Beat on low to combine then on a higher speed till the mixture turns a paler colour.

Fill your muffins cups with the mixture.

*I’m not sure if it was just my self raising flour, mine rose. a lot.

Place into the oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes. and you’re done!

See how they don’t look like cupcakes? I’m not sure if i did something wrongly, like beating them for too long, but it’s a little weird.

This tastes best warm or just out of the oven (the tops are crunchy). they get really hard when cold.

So when i want to eat this, i pop one into the microwave for 20 seconds. If you wanna replicate the crunch when it first comes out of the oven, just pop it in the toaster for a while.

This is how i ate this yesterday for dessert!

A lone muffin after 20 seconds in the microwave.

Now accompanied with Serendipity’s Tiramisu ice cream. Yum Yum Yum!

Fish had this too.. but with maple syrup as well. and more muffins of course.

So… i would call this a muffin by the taste and texture of my version. :)

I will make it again though. cause i actually quite like it. and i’m not sure if the original recipe used large eggs, but my eggs are always large, so this has a eggy taste and smell. which is nice. but you might be able to just use 2 large eggs and maybe a little more milk instead if you’re not a fan of the eggy taste and smell. :)

Happy Eating!
