Chocolate and Horlicks Cupcakes

Hellooo!
So I know I've been away a while... like a few months a while but I promise a post is coming soon explaining why. So today while I was bored and probably meant to be doing college work I decided to make some of my chocolate and Horlicks cupcakes to... you know... get me through my work. Summer body fail or what. Oh well they're delicious and I love them so I'll make them if I want god dammit. This recipe makes 10 cupcakes in total.

For this you'll need: 

100g self raising flour
40g cocoa powder (I use Bourneville)
40g butter
3 tablespoons of Horlicks powder
120ml milk
1 egg
140g caster sugar
a pinch of salt
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°c.
  2. Put the flour,cocoa powder, Horlicks powder, butter, sugar and salt into a large mixing bowl and beat with a mixer until it is a fine, even mixture. 
  3. Whisk the egg and milk together and add about half to the mixture and mix again with the electric mixer. Add the other half once it is thoroughly mixed through. 
  4. Once the mixture is smooth with no lumps spoon it out into cases and sprinkle on some Horlicks powder to give it a little crispy top.
  5. Bake in your oven for about 20-25 minutes. 
Tah-Dah! You have some delicious little cupcakes for you to enjoy! Hope you enjoyed this and will consider making 


Lots of love
