| I really love milktart. It is the only thing I can bake without needing a recipe. So when I saw this milktart cupcake recipe I just had to try it. |
| Ingredients: 4 eggs 1 and ½ cups sugar 2 cups cake flour, sieved 1 packet of milk tart-flavoured instant pudding 1 cup milk 2/3 cup vegetable oil 1 Tbsp. vanilla essence 2½ tsp. baking powder |
|
Method: |
|
It is a quick recipe to put together Unfortunately it did not have that unique milktart flavor but it is a nice vanilla cupcake, albeit a bit too sweet for my liking. The kids could not have enough so I think I will make it again and just decrease the sugar a bit. I would like to enter these cupcakes in the food24 cupcake competition. |

and it took me about 15 minutes from mixing to oven so it would be ideal to serve with tea when unexpected guests arrive.

Sounds like an interesting recipe, how much oil did you use?

How much oil did you use? We should in fact ask the children to do the final voting, they have very high standards and they don’t think like we adults do, it’s either one of the two; taste nice, don’t taste nice!

There’s a milk-tart flavoured instant pudding? Goodness!

Yes Zabwan. They made all these classic south african tarts/ deserts into instant puddings.

Oh I only saw now the measurement of the oil didnt is a question mark. Fixed it.
Yes kids are the best food critics. They dont lie.

I was disappointed that it didnt have more of a milktart flavour, Pinky.
Adiam said on June 21, 2011
It sure is different, Sue. I didnt even know one can add instant puddings to batter.

What a great flavour idea! Think I need to experiment with this a bit – what if you used some of the pudding in the icing as well to inject more milktart flavour? And perhaps sprinkled with a bit of cinnamon? Either way, I’m sure they tasted great.

great idea, Marisa. I should try that too.

Hi Pinky, I am fine. Just a bit too busy to blog now. Reading still, though.
