Cupcakes a.l.a Wilma :')

One fine morning on Saturday, i decided to make something hand-made for this year valentine's gift..esp for my bf, for sure!!! Actually we don't specially celebrate val's day because there's nothing special on that day. For me, birthdays and anniversary are much better than valentine's. But this idea just comes straight in my mind, i just want to make something hand-made for him and fortuitous, it's valentine! I know he likes my-hand-made gift better than buying-stuff gift. So, I chose making cupcakes..since it is today's trend and i haven't tried to make it. Unfortunately, i'm not good yet in terms of recipe, but thank God, my super-best mom has this great recipe. As you know, my mom is very good in culinary world. So i asked her help in doing my project hihihi..

My mom just helped me in making the dough till it was baked on the oven, after that she had to go somewhere..so i had to do this all by myself. Can be said, this is my first time doing it all alone. I have to check several times to make sure the cake is already done. To put it off from the cake tin. To pour the rum into the cake (it's just only on my estimation). To cut out the cupcakes. And the last one to decorate each cupcakes :') interesting!!!

First of all, preheat the oven to 180 C. Back to the dough, beat together the butter and sugar until it's pale. Then add the eggs one at a time, beating in well after each addition, then gradually pour the mixture of flour and cocoa, beat it till the dough comes together. Finally, put the dough into the cake tin and baked it in the oven.


After the cake is done baked, let the tin sits on a cooling rack for 5-10 minutes and then turn them out from the tin, and started to cut out the cakes using the special cut out tools (mine are heart and curly circle).

Break up the chocolate into small pieces and melted it by swirling it around to cover in the hot liquid. Pour the melted chocolate to the top of each cupcakes. You can fill it full, or just fill it abstract, like spider web. You choose!!

Now it's time to decorate each cupcakes....It's up to your creativity and imagination in this part. You can use everything as the decoration as long as it can be eaten. You can find it many in a bakery shop. This time, i don't have time to go to the bakery shop so i just use ordinary snacks: Cha Cha milk chocolate, Yupi candy, and nyam nyam's crunchy. Decor it as you wish^^

and...Voila..!!! Cupcakes a.l.a Wilma..
This one is for my bf.

and this one is for my mom who makes the dough..it's yummy tummy :D thanks, mom^^
