Milo Muffin with Recipe

I am a milo lover (for those of you who don't know what milo is, it is just a type of powdered choco drink), the taste is so nice and I have always wanted to use it in cakes / biscuits.

It's so hard to find recipes with Milo, I finally found one long time ago and made quite a few alternation to the recipe which taste better now in my opinion :):)

The topping were cream cheese in the above picture.

Recipe: (For about 12 medium size cup cakes)

1. Self Raising Flour 1 and 3/4 cup

2. Chocolate 1 cup

3. Milk  1 and 1/4 cup

4. Butter 75g

5. Milo 1 cup

6. Egg 1

Direction:

1. Combine sifted flour and milo

2. Melt butter, chocolate, milk together

3. Add combined flour and milo into butter, chocolate and milk

4. Add in slightly beaten egg

5. Bake in oven at 200C for about 20 minutes or until it's cooked

P.S I used semi-sweeten chocolate for this recipe, if you like sweet cakes you can add in a little bit sugar, but if you are using sweeten chocolate, I think 1 cup of chocolate already give an enough sweet favor to the cake.

Carrot Cake with Recipe

Do your kids hate carrot? Are you finding some ways to get yourself eat carrot? Let's give carrot cake a try!

I don't like to eat carrot since I was small, I think it tastes strange, hard and not much flavor. I do eat carrots if they are in the soup when they are so soft, and lately I tried out carrot cake and I think it's fine for me! :D:D Give it a try and you may find carrot is not that bad-tasting! LoL
