I also had so much fun making them. Ofcourse i saw my daughter flashing to the kitchen each time and licking the chocolate icing....................
Sugar, sour cream, melted butter and chocolate etc...
Ready to go in the oven
Just finished the icing......
Ingridients.
50 gm/3 oz dark chocolate, broken into pieces
85 gm/ 3 oz butter
1tbsp milk
200 gm/8oz selfraising flour
Half tsp bicarbonate of soda
50 gm/2oz muscovado sugar ( if you don't have them u can use normal sugar but i think it is this sugar which fives it the fudgy taste)
50 gm /2oz caster sugar
1 egg
150 ml sour cream / youghurt
For the topping.
100 gm/ 4 oz dark chocolate broken into pieces and melted
100 gm/ 4 oz white chocolate broken into pieces and melted
Preheat the ovzn to 190° c and line a muffin tin with 12 paper cases.
Heat the chocolate abd butter with milk until melted. Stir and cool.
Mix the flour, bicarbonate of soda and both the sugar.
Beat the egg in a another bowl and stir in the sour cream., then pour this onto the flous mixture and add the cooled chocolate.
Stir just to combine, don't over mix it.
Spoon into the muffin cases and bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
Cool the cakes on a wire rack.
Now for the topping. Spread a muffin with dark chocolate, then pipe four circles of white chocolate on top. Drag a skewer ( i used a tooth pick) from the centre to the edge to create the cowweb effect.
Alternate dark chocolate for the opposite effect.
I loved the one with the dark chocolate toppings.
