Cupcake Cookies



I made them this way because I was impatient LOL! I was craving chocolate chip cookies but I didnt want to put the cookie dough in the refrigerator to let them harden then roll them into balls so I put them in cupcake liners. I actually liked it better like that.

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

1 egg

1 egg yolk

2 cups chocolate chips

Directions

Prehead oven to 325 degrees F. Line cupcake pan with liners.

Sift together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside

In a medium bowl, cream together the melted butter, brown sugar and white sugar until well blended. Beat in the vanilla, egg, and egg yolk until light and creamy. Mix in the sifted ingredients until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand using a wooden spoon.

Spoon into cupcake liners. Bake until golden brown or inserted toothpick comes out clean. Transfer to wire rack to cool.

ENJOY!!!

Fudge Cake!!

2 years ago when I was planning my wedding, I went to a bridal show and fell in love with this cake that tasted almost exactly like fudge so I've been trying to find recipes for it and I finally found one and made it and it turned out amazing! If you're a chocolate lover, you will LOVE this!! Its very rich and also very moist! Hope you guys give it a try and let me know how you like it!







350grams Chocolate chips
2 1/4 sticks of butter
2 cups Water
2 cups of Caster (Superfine) Sugar (If you can't find caster sugar, just use regular sugar and put it in the blender).
2 cups of Self-Raising Flour
4 eggs
You will need a round bundt cake pan. (You can use just a round cake pan or square just make sure its deep)


Preheat your oven to 325 degrees
Gather the chocolates, butter and water and put it in a medium size saucepan. Stir frequently over low heat until all chocolates and butter are melted and looking very smooth. Set aside to cool.
Lightly beat eggs in a large bowl. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the eggs.
Add sugar and flour into the chocolate mixture, and continue mixing until well-blended.
Make sure to use baking paper (wax paper) so that it won't stick on the bottom and sides of your pan. (I used a silicon pan so I wouldn't have to use wax paper. See pic. below)







Bake for about 1 hour or until a skewer inserted into the center of cake comes out clean.
Let the cake cool, before adding the frosting.



Chocolate frosting
300 grams Chocolate chips
2 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
Melt chocolate chips, butter and heavy cream over low heat, make sure to stir frequently until melted and very smooth. You can add more cream if you think the mixture is too thick.
ENJOY!!!


**This cake can be frozen for 4-6months.


** You can also make this cake with different flavours, just substitute the chocolate chips with chips of your choice.





Suggestions- After your frost the cake, I set it in the frig. for a few hours. If you eat it when its still warm its kind of gooey, which I didn't like. When its cold it seems to harden to the right consistency its suppose to be.
