Milo Cupcakes

Since we bought the oven, I have been thinking of what we should bake next. Our first baking project basic cupcakes was quite successful, so this time, I thought of baking another variety of cupcakes - Milo cupcakes!

Ingredients (make 6 cupcakes):

100g flour (we used plain flour)

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 medium eggs

40g castor sugar 

80g butter

2 tablespoons condensed milk

100 ml milk

60g Milo powder (we used 2 sachets of instant Milo powder)

Instruction:

1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius
2. Melt the butter in a sauce pan over low fire. Add sugar, condensed milk, milk and Milo powder. Stir until the sugar and Milo powder are dissolved.
3. Sift flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl
4. Beat eggs with a high speed for 1 minute, followed by a slower speed until it turns fluffy
5. Add the eggs to (2), followed by flour and baking powder
6. Divide the batter into 8 cupcake cups. Fill to about 70% of the cup.
7. Bake the cupcakes at 180 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes

Our Milo cupcakes did not look really nice, because I accidentally turned the temperature to 190 degrees Celsius for a while! I think the temperature was too high and caused the cupcakes to "smile" (crack)! Anyway, Hao Hao loved the Milo cupcakes so much that he ate 3 of them!

Perhaps I shall try making Milo cream to decorate the cupcakes next time!
