Chocolate cup cakes
6 Answers
Hi all, I'm gonna make some chocolate cup cakes and a friend of mine said she always makes her cakes in the same way (Weigh eggs then put equal amount of flour and sugar) - adding cocoa if wanting chocolate etc...
Now does this work? (I'm not very good with cakes) she says it does, but I can't find a recipe that uses equal amounts like this and I've never seen her cakes so they might not be very good!
Also I'm not sure to use self-raising or plain flour and/or add baking powder!
