D Double Decker Cupcakes

OH MY GOSH, IT'S D DOUBLE DECKERS!!! Bluku Bluku these badman cupcakes are a quick and easy afternoon bake off that will go perfectly with a cup of tea or coffee! I've had a fair bit of time this weekend to think about Hip Hop Baking and me and my friend were chatting yesterday which resulting in us going to Tescos staring at chocolate bars and cake ingredients for a good 20 minutes before reeling off a load of names to each other which then continued via text in the evening until I was laughing so much I couldn't sleep. 

D Double Decker Cupcakes


You will need:

3 Eggs
6oz Butter
6oz Caster Sugar
5oz Self raising Flour
100g Milk Chocolate 
3 Double Deckers
2oz Cocoa Powder

For the icing:

100G butter
300G Icing Sugar
Dash of vanilla extract

Method: 

Beat the butter and sugar together in a bowl until the mixture is light and creamy, add the eggs in one by one storing the mixture as you go until it is consistent with no lumps and bumps. Sift the flour and cocoa powder into the bowl and add the melted chocolate to the sponge mixture. Make sure you fold the mixture rather than just stirring it about so your sponge gets a good amount of air and will rise properly, its not about flat cakes yo. 

Pop in the oven on 160c for half an hour until the cakes have risen and are golden brown.  Whilst they are cooling you can mix up the butter and sifted icing sugar to create the topping, add a splash of Vanilla extract and you are ready to spoon onto the top of the cakes adding the slices of double decker for the full badaman effect. 

It's pretty hard to choose a D double track for me to suggest you start your bake off with, there are a couple that feature on my running playlist and whenever I hear them I go from snail pace running to racking up kilometres in no time! But lets start with this tune and any of the Shillington playas will know whats up as Mark played this as his showcasing portfolio track..BIG!!
