Ingredients
For the cakes
100g plain flour
20g cocoa powder (i use cadbury bourneville)
140g caster sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
a pinch of salt
40g unsalted butter (essential that it is at room temperature)
120ml whole milk
1 egg
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
a 12-hole cupcake tray,lined with paper cases
Method
Preheat the oven to 170C(325F)Gas 3
Out the flour ,cocoa powder,sugar,baking powder,salt and butter in a free standing electric mixer with paddle attachment (or use a handheld electric whisk)and beat on a slow speed until you get a sandy consitency and everything is combined.
Whisk the milk,egg,and vanilla extract together in a jug ,then slowly pour about half into the flour mixture,beat to combine and turn the mixer up to high speed (scrape any unmixed ingredients from the side of the bowl with a rubber spatula).Continue mixing for a couple more minutes until the mixture is smooth.Do not over mix.
Spoon the mixture into the paper cases until two-thirds full and bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes,or until the sponge bounces back when touched.A skewer inserted in the center should come out clean.Leave the cupcakes to coll slightly in the tray before turning out onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
when the cupcakes are cooled,spread the frosting on with a pallet knife , or sqweeze in with a piping bag and decorate with chocolate vermicelli or silver balls. ( see chocolate frosting ) Vanilla and Cream cheese frosting also works well if your not a chocolate lover
The cupcakes are lovely.
More care in writing the recipe is needed, as well as correction in the method. Not actually a problem to me, but a newbie might actually wonder, what to do, after having been told to pour in half the egg/milk mixture but no mention when to pour in the rest.
Also If you decorate with chocolate frosting, the recipe for it should be there!!
Georgous!!! If you can get the batter into the oven without eating it all first!! Delish! I had never made choc cupcakes before so didnt know what to expect, but these were really chocolatey and moist. Made for a friends BBQ and everyone loved them! Making them again tonight for a friends birthday :D
This is actually the Hummingbird cafe recipe so frost with their chocolate, vanilla or cream cheese buttercream recipes. American cupcake cases are bigger than standard UK fairy cake cases, so it depends which you use as to how much you get out of the mixture. I use fairy cases and only half fill them (any more and they overflow making a crispy flat top that just breaks off when you try to get them out to eat) so I get around 20 cakes out of this. Really chocolatey and light.
I thought these were lovely. Really light and fluffy, very tasty and very easy to make. Perfect quantity for 12 cupcakes to come up just to the top of the paper (if you manage to divide the batter equally) - don't know what all the negative comments are all about.
Worked perfect first time round, even after 2 glasses of white wine:-) I just measured and poured all the ingredients into my vitamix, then blended on low for a minute, then poured into 12 cupcake sleeves. Filled each 3quarters full, and after 20mins cooking had risen rest of way. Let cool, then applied a vanilla butter creme, and chocolate sprinkles, delisious. My 2 year old helped me, they were easy and are tasty.
yes, as most comments say...cakes are not great: They did not raise well and there wasn't enough for 12 muffin cases.
They taste good, though, and are not too sweet as most comments said. I've used a bitter and strong cocoa power though.
