Chocolate Cupcakes

I've recently acquired Nigella Lawson's HOW TO BE A DOMESTIC GODDESS Cookbook and thought I'll attempt something from there for Lyn's farewell dinner. I have never baked anything using muscovado sugar and thought I'll give this chocolate cupcake a go. Chocolate cupcakes usually will not go wrong with a crowd. *wink*

An additonal batch was baked for KL as his birthday coincidentally falls on the same day. Everyone loved the cake and I was delighted! :D




The original recipe asks for dark muscovado sugar, but I was unable to find it at major supermarkets. Thus I substituted light muscovado instead. I've also reduced the original quantity of 200g to 150g as I found it too sweet. The cupcakes are fragrant and delicious with a think crispy crust on the top. Will definately bake these again.
