Don't be fooled by the plain looking cupcakes, you'll have to sink your teeth in to judge!

Other than Red Velvet Cupcakes, my sister and I did  some candies, they're known as Bom Boms. Unfortunately, they did not turn out to be as round as they should have, but the texture and sweetness were just right!

Easy - Buttermilk Blueberry Muffins

Howdy!!

Just the other afternoon, I decided to make a trip down to Sher's place to have some good old bonding time!! Too bad Huimin is over in HK and couldn't join us for the wonderful baking experience. If you guys haven't knew about Sher and Huimin, we were from the same primary school as well as secondary school. Our friendship has been on-going for 13 years, and without a doubt, I believe it will still grow stronger!! ^^\/. 

So we baked Blueberry Muffins, and gosh...... they turned out wonderfully delicious!! You've got to try this simple yet fulfilling recipe!!! The ingredients are widely available at most of the local supermarkets, I'm pretty sure all of you will have a great time basking through this classic recipe. Quick and simple to follow!

 

Can you see how nicely cracked the muffins are!?!?

MAI TU LIAO!! TRY IT NOW!! The recipe is just below!!

Buttermilk Blueberry Muffins

You'll need:

• 140g Butter, Softened
• 140g Caster Sugar
• 2 Eggs (60g with shells)
• 4 tbsp Buttermilk
• 175g Self-raising Flour
• 115g Blueberries (Quantity may vary according to your liking)
• Icing Sugar, for dusting

Method

Preheat oven @ 175 deg celsius

1. Mix butter till smooth, add in caster sugar and beat till light and fluffy.
2. Add in eggs, one at a time/beat them together and split into two additions. (DO NOT OVER-MIX)
3. Stir in buttermilk.
4. Sift flour into the liquid mixture and start using the spatula to fold them together.
5. When the dry and liquid ingredients have nicely incorporated, gently fold in half portion of the blueberries.
6. Spoon batter into muffin cups till 3/4 full. Scatter the rest of the blueberries over.
7. Bake for 25 minutes @ 175 deg celsius.

Tips: If you don't want your muffin's peak to crack too much, shift them to the lower rack when they have reached your desired state, BUT!!! remember while you're shifting them, avoid having to much movements e.g. shaking, hitting against racks etc. Try to keep them as still as you can. Too much movements might cause the uncooked batter to sink, thus your muffin would not have a beautiful peak!

Nonetheless, I wish you guys GOODLUCK with trying out this simple and easy recipe! 

XOXO,
