I made these blueberry cupcakes to give away at Melony's birthday party. Pink ones for girls, green ones for boys.
I can't believe that our sweet little girl is already six!
Last Friday, Melony bounced into our room at 5:30 in the morning cheering, "I'm six! I'm six!". Being the youngest child in her class, she has been waiting for this day for so long. At the moment she is happy being the same age as most of her classmates, but her friends will start turning seven soon.
Anyway, we promised her a big celebration when she's six. Eager to show us her growing confidence, she tried to be involved as much as she could. She got to choose the venue for her party, made her own guest list and told me her idea of a perfect birthday cake.
Voilà! Here is Melony's dream birthday cake. A blueberry cupcake (muffin) with pink sparkling icing , marshmallow and her face on top.
To make 25 blueberry muffins (in 7cm height 5cm diameter cases):
Ingredients
2oog unsalted butter, melted.
60cc vegetable oil
8 eggs
200g whole fat natural yogurt
400cc milk
320g sugar
1 tsb vanilla essence
850g plain flour
8 tsb baking powder
1tsb fine salt
500g frozen blueberries
Method
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2. In a large bowl, add the egg , melted butter, vegetable oil, yogurt, milk, sugar, vanilla essence and mix well.
3. Sieve the flour, baking powder and salt into another bowl. Add the dry ingredients into the egg mixture. Stir until all the ingredients are combined.
4. Toss the blueberries in a tbsp flour to prevent them sinking to the bottom. Gently fold the berries into the muffin mixture. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases (only fill up to 60%), place the cases on a oven tray and bake for 25 minutes.
They taste best when slightly warm. I usually keep them in the fridge and microwave them for 20 seconds before serving.
Happy birthday girl!
Melony and Glen.
Make a wish..
