Mini Chocolate Cupcakes
These mini chocolate cupcakes are delicious and fragrant. The chocolate melted in the middle once it's baked and you can feel and taste the wonderful bite of the small cake.
Ingredients
- 45 g butter
- 1 large egg
- 35 g caster sugar
- 1.5 tsp honey
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp dairy whipping cream - or milk
- 40 g cake flour/plain flour
- 1.5 tsp Valrhona cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- semi-sweet chocolate - chopped half
- chopped walnuts or chocolate chips - for topping
Instructions
- Melt butter under a double boiler and set aside.
- In a bowl, stir egg, sugar, vanilla, whipping cream and honey together with a hand whisk till just combined.
- Mix flours together in a bowl, then sift into the egg mixture and stir gently until no streaks of flour can be seen. Pour in melted butter (lukewarm) and stir mixture till combined (do not overmix).
- Pour batter into piping bag and tighten with a clip. Store the bag in the freezer for about 20 minutes till mixture slightly thickened.
- Chop semi-chocolate to small pieces (I used bitter chocolate).
- Pipe half of the batter into mini paper cups and place a piece （or two) of chocolate on top, then top with the remaining batter to 80 percent full. Lastly sprinkle some chop walnuts (or chocolate chips) on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven (middle rack) at 180 degrees C for about 12-15 minutes.
