Honey Cupcakes w/ Honey Whipped Cream Frosting

I was browsing through my pantry yesterday, and realized that I still have honey left, quite a lot actually. So, here they come, honey cupcakes. This type of cupcake is very moist, soft and fluffy. I really like the texture. It is just like 'not-eating-anything" or "you-can-finish-it-in-one-bite" type of cupcake. The frosting really helps to describe the cupcake since I am not using any butter for the frosting, just regular heavy whipped cream. Both my sister and my boyfriend prefer this version more than the "butter frosting version". It is much, much, much lighter. Love it with the "simply" simple rainbow sprinkles. Keke.. >.<

Honey Cupcakes w/ Honey Whipped Cream Frosting
Ingredients:
3 large eggs
80g honey
20g sugar
100g cake flour
30g vegetable oil
30g soy milk
1 tsp salt

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line cupcake liners in cupcake pan.
2. Beat eggs, honey and sugar on high speed with electric mixer till the batter becomes frothy and pale yellow.
3. Add in soy milk and salt. Mix well.
4. Add in cake flour and fold it. Mix well.
5. Mix oil into the batter.
6. Scoop batter into cupcake liners till 80% full. Bake for 15-20 minutes or till golden brown.
7. Cool completely on wire rack.

*My cupcakes shrink right after they were taken out from the oven. This type of cupcakes are the hardest to bake. Even I have the fear when baking this type of fluffy cupcakes. A small little mistake may lead to the failure of the cupcakes.

However, the cupcakes still taste good, very strong honey smell.

Whipped cream frosting:
80g heavy whipped cream
40g powdered sugar

rainbow sprinkles

Steps:
Beat the heavy whipped cream and powdered sugar till form still peaks. Put into piping bag and pipe onto cooled cupcakes. (Make sure the cupcakes are completely cooled to avoid the whipped cream from melting.) Then, sprinkle any desired topping of your own choice. I used rainbow sprinkles. The cupcakes turn out to be unexpectedly pleasant. Lol.. =P

Enjoy baking, Enjoy eating =)

Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cupcake w/ Chocolate & Peanut Butter Frosting

     What a normal, usual, boring day... It's very ineffective that I have nothing much to do, stuck in a place whereby I cannot go home nor can I do something else.. Sitting is my job now...@@... Okay.. I'll take it... Have to blog somehow.. Later have to bake something to make myself feel useful again...Too many ideas, yet I have no clues on which idea to choose.Sometimes too many choices aren't so good as well. I'm not a person who always have immediate decision, I need more time to think before I act, unless I have a certain adrenaline rush on that day, I guess... At the mean time, I think I will just post a baking project that I have done in the past to kill time...It has a very long name though, blame the words and the author >.<..

Chocolate & Peanut Butter Cupcake w/ Chocolate & Peanut Butter Frosting
(Please mind the long name, LOL)
Ingredients:
3 eggs
100g sugar
100g vegetable oil
50g milk
80g peanut butter
130g all-purpose flour
20g cocoa powder
1 tbsp baking powder

Chocolate & Peanut Butter Frosting
1 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
2 tbsp cocoa powder
3 tbsp milk

toasted peanuts, chopped
marshmallow, mini

Steps:
1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line baking pan with cupcake liners.
2. Beat eggs, sugar and oil till mixed. Then, add milk into the batter.
3. Sift the flour mixture and mix into the batter.
4. Add the peanut butter.
5. Scoop batter into cupcake liners till 3/4 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes or toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.
6. At the mean time, beat butter, powdered sugar, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and milk till creamy and smooth. Add more milk if the frosting is too thick; add more powdered sugar if the frosting is too thin and runny.
7. Spread the frosting on top of the cooled cupcake, or you can pipe into piping bag of own choices.
8. Top with toasted peanuts and marshmallow.

The cupcakes are tasty, nothing can go wrong with the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. The toasted peanuts gave the cupcakes a crunch while biting into the soft cupcakes.I really love some crunch texture in my cupcakes/cakes/cookies/bars/breads. It's like I'm really biting into something. I'm a weirdo, I guess...>.<...

Enjoy! Hope you will enjoy it as much as I do... =)

Baking Frenzy (Green Tea, Pandan, Chocolate)

     There are 3 types of cupcakes here, Green tea w/ green tea frosting cupcakes, Pandan w/ pandan frosting cupcakes, and Chocolate w/ chocolate frosting cupcakes. Sometimes I was too crazy to bake several types of bakery within a day. It's like a drug that makes me could not get out of the baking frenzy. LOL. I know the cupcakes do not look too pretty because I was using new baking cups that are relatively too small compared to the normal cupcake liners that I have used all the while. >.<.
