Mini Muffins

Mini Milo Muffins

My very own recipe Moist Milo Cake has been so favourite, refer to the last post dated 12 June 2012. It got me thinking to bake small cakes for everyone to enjoy.  Milo drink enables me to use it for my cake recipes instead of using chocolate coco powder.  This time I created: Mini Milo Muffins.

Mini Milo Muffin is a treat for us to enjoy with tea or coffee, and a gift for children to take to school for their play lunches.  The little cake is moist and delicious but healthy enough for us to eat daily if you wish to.

The muffins keep for a few days in an airtight container and stay moist too.

The muffins are not only delicious, but they are inexpensive to bake.  Have fun and happy baking.


Another treat starts with M is Mandarins, they are in season now.  Today Rayner harvested about ten mandarins also, but unfortunately, we have to keep them for a week to make them easy to peel and taste sweeter.  Well, to have a beautiful thing sometimes we ought to wait, so we will have this' in a week.
