This is a favourite cupcake recipe of mine. When i am out of idea which recipe to follow i will always go back to the basic. This is a basic cupcake choice for me that i get from Nigella's book 'FEAST'. It is a gift from hubby.
简单的小杯蛋糕食谱是最受欢迎的. 而一个是简单又肯定成功的食谱哦 ;)
每每不知道要选择做哪个小杯蛋糕时我总是会做这个来自英国的性感甜点女神的Nigella Lawson的食谱. 她的书'FEAST', 是宝贝'爸'送的 :p
