making delicious cupcakes by using blender

I bought this blender from Total Image roadshow 5 years ago but hardly use it. I remembered back then, I used it only for making fruit juice and the marinade sauce for chicken rice.

I always wanted to try making cupcakes with this blender after watching the Magic Bullet video clip. Always, but no action taken since then. (shy ^_^)

Last Sat night, it just crossed my mind on having it a try. I cut the ingredient into a small portion which fits in well to the tall cup.

Ingredient: (making 8 cupcakes)
100g butter
100g self-raising flour
60g castor sugar
2 eggs
few drops of vanilla essence
raisins or anything to your liking

Steps :
1. Heat up oven at 175°C.
2. Melt butter and blend it together with sugar.
3. Then add in eggs. Press and hold for 3 seconds
4. Fold in flour by using a plastic paddle. Press 3 times  (one second each)
5. Lastly, add in raisin or anything that you like. Mixed well with the plastic paddle.
6. Pour in the batter into cupcake liners and bake for 18mins.

*remember, do not blend the butter for too long as it will make your cupcakes shrink. Like my choc sun-dried tomato cupcakes.

Below website is just for your viewing pleasure. Looking at the way they compressed the usage of the blender into few minustes of video clips is just like watching magic show!

for the next experiment, I'd like to try on pasta sauce. I'll definitely share it out once I successfully make my homemade pumpkin and tomato pasta sauce.
