Been thinking of making something different which is nice and easy to made. Finally decided to make cupcakes for this time round. I particularly saw this simple looking recipe and spotted this nice picture of a Oreo & Raisin Cupcakes from Aunty Yochana.
The ingredient was so simple and only few ingredients was required to made it. As I only have a simple small desktop electric oven so was going through my cupcake mould to see how many can fit it and my gosh... I can only fit in 9 cupcake mould and this is a big size one as well.
Had not done any cupcake before and the recipe did not state how many cupcake i can made. So i decided to just use the 9 big size cupcake mould and throw in all the batter.. ha ha .. and i think i overfilled the cupcakes almost to 90% coz I dun wan to leave any batter behind. And it was really a mistake as the batter start to rise, rise and rise and overflowed out from the cupcake mould. And so it was another mess that I had made he he..
I think maybe some one can help me out on this as to whether i can just leave the batter and put it in after the 1st tray of cupcake is done. coz for most cakes it's best that once u mix everything together u must straight away put the cake batter into the oven to start baking or else the cake will be deflatted.
This is the biggest problem with a small oven. How I wish I can get a bigger oven to made life more simpler ha ha.. so I can bake with more fun and not going around worrying whether the cake pan can fit.. So Santa pls help me send out this msg for a new oven.. ha ha n thank you..
Ok ok coming back to the cupcake, beside having cake batter flowing out everywhere in the oven, my giant cupcakes turn out alright. Ya i forgot to mention that I didn't add in raisin as I'm not a great fan of it and for the oreo part I just put in 80g instead of the 100g mentioned and yes it was just alright for me.
When I try the cupcake the top was a big harder ( coz i overbaked i think) but surprisingly the texture inside was just soft and nice. It was a bit sweeter becoz of the oreo cookies added in so if u are not a person with sweet tooth then maybe u can reduce the cookies or reduce the sugar in the ingredient.
Another thing I would like to mention as well was the oreo cookies - I had chopped it into small pieces but not till it all crumbs. I think it taste better as u can taste the oreo and it become soften when u it baked.
So my 1st experience for the first cupcake baking was great he he.. except for the oven complaint part. Thanks to Aunty Yochana for her great recipe and here is the link (recipe) if u wish to try it for yourself. Do try it...

Hi Carmen,
ReplyDeleteIt's ok, you can bake your cupcakes in 2 batches. For cupcakes, it is not much fuss about rising. Bake 1st batch with qty that can fit ur oven then later continue with left over batter.
Btw, I have emailed you the invites to my private blog already.
