I found this recipe from the newspapers today (The Straits Times, 8 Apr 2007). It seemed rather interesting so I'm posting it up here for safekeeping. I haven't tried it yet, I'll edit it (to make it healthier) after trying :) Preparation time is just a guess. Ingredients:
150 g sweet butter or 150 g salted butter |
1/2 teaspoon salt (omit if using salted butter) |
150 water |
35 g cocoa powder |
170 g cake flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
150 g sugar |
2 eggs |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celcius. Line 12 muffin or cupcake tins with paper cups.
2. Combine butter, salt (if using) and water in a small saucepan until butter has melted and mixture is about to boil.
3. Whisk in cocoa until well combined. set aside to cool.
4. Sift flour, baking powder and sugar together into a bowl. Set aside.
5. Beat eggs and vanilla essence together and pour into the cooled cocoa mixture.
6. Mix into the dry ingredients until well combined.
7. Fill tins 1/2 to 2/3 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. :).
