Lasang Pinoy Sunday - Soft


For this week's theme, Soft, is something that kids and adults alike truly enjoy. Muffins... or cupcakes?

So what´s the difference between cupcakes and muffins? Cupcakes have frosting, muffins don´t. Cupcakes are eaten as dessert, muffins (not always) as breakfast. Cupcakes are made from cakeflour and muffins from bread. But since I made this with chocolate chips and the kids eat them after a meal, I don´t know where it should fall....



Muffins, so soft!

I am so eager to bake but baking doesn´t want me much so I seldom do, that is, when the little boy in the previous post would not let up until I take out the baking pan, the ingredients and make him help out.

I do not really have a special recipe that´s why I am so glad that there´s Betty Crocker! =D










We like their devil´s foodcake mix but every mix is actually special too. For the muffins, a little water, egg, and oil plus a handful (little boy´s) of chocolate chips will do the trick.









A little patience on the part of the kids...to wait till they puff up, taken out of the oven then cooled.






Eating off the chocolates first!




Yum!
