I almost lost hope in baking. But it’s always good to persevere. Despite wasting money for having to throw away ‘baked goods’ which are close to inedible, I decided to give it another try and, voila, I was able to create a (close to) masterpiece – Tsokolate Cupcake.
Over the weekend, I decided to spend more time in the kitchen (apart from preparing @IamMrPies’ dog food) and decided I make good use of my tablea before it expires and sentenced to death by binning. It turned out time well spent as the project turned out successful – one of my few ones in baking. Lesson learned: just follow the recipe to a T.
I have organized the recipe in such a way that you can follow it per batch / step featuring the ingredients for each step.

Step 1: Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees Celsius
Step 2: Tsokolate Prep

Step 4: Dry Goods

Step 5: Cream

Enjoy! And let me know what you think of the recipe – feedback, suggestions, recommendaitons are welcome!
