Hari minggu kemaren, sekolah Nadine ngadain field trip ke Nongsa Point Marina, nahh .. bunda kebagian bikin cemilan buat anak-anak. Akhirnya pilihannya jatuh ke bikin american risoles tapi kali ini diisi ama potongan sosis selain daging asap & cup cake coklat. Resepnya beda ama yang beberapa waktu lalu bikin untuk bekal Nadine, kali ini dapet dari situs ini. Hasilnya, hmmm .. laris manis .. :)

situs cupcakeblog ini, isinya cup-cake mulu dengan macem2 toping & variasi bentuk yg bikin giler pengen nyobain. Coba deh browsing disini, pasti langsung jatuh cinta ma cup cake :)

Devil's Food Chocolate Cake
Makes 24 cupcakes/350 degree oven

2 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1-1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1-1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

1. Measure out everything but the eggs directly into your mixer bowl.
2. Mix on low speed just until incorporated.
3. Beat on high speed for 2 minutes.
4. Add eggs, beat on high speed again for 2 minutes.

Measure out into cupcake pan lined with cupcake papers. A 2" ice cream scoop works great for this (aku pake sendok makan, kira2 2 sdm/cup). Bake for about 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool slightly in the pan then transfer to a rack to cool completely before frosting.

Chocolate Buttercream

1 stick butter
1/2 cup cocoa
4 cups confectioner's sugar

2. Add cocoa and 1 cup of sugar and beat until incorporated
3. Add half of the milk and the remainder of sugar and beat until incorporated.
4. Continue to add milk until you get to the consistency you want.
