Spider Web Chocolate Fudge Cup Cakes

These are the perfect Hallowe'en treat, they are light and chocolatey. The kids would love it. Adults too as i ate few of them as I love chocolate.

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.

Omlette With Potato

The beautiful lovely Kanchana from Married to a Desi is hosting Weekend breakfast blogging event OMELETTE. This is my contribution for her event.

The event was started by Dr.Nandita Iyer of Saffrron Trail.

Let me see what can i say about this omelette. Nothing much. Actually it is my MIL make this omlette when she have left over potatoes when my hubby and his brother were small.

So when my daughter stayed in their place when she was younger ( well to be honest she always wanted to stay with her Oma ( that is what she calls her grandmother) when she was younger as you know kids love their grandmothers. She would still go and stay there now ,but she have too much school work. MIL used to make this for her and after a while i started also making this for my daughter as she love to have this omlette.

You can add any filling you want. I made this for my daughter so NO VEGETABLES as she dislike most of them.
If i was making it for myself i would have added few slice of mushroo, onions or capsicum etc....for reall carnivores they can add ham etc :-))
