"Hamburger" Cupcakes

Plan: To make cupcakes with strawberry jam as the filling in the center.

..Strawberries and jam in a tin..

Well, the idea was there but I don't think I managed to do what I had in mind. I ended up creating a layer of jam in the middle. Hence, turning it into "hamburger" cupcakes. I did not realise this until I tried one. I thought the jam would somehow stick or turn into something else. I guess it didn't. heh. :D

..Somehow, I keep on thinking about ice cream every time I look at the picture..

..It was a recipe for 20 cupcakes which ended up becoming enough for only 12. >.< ..

..You could see the layers over here. I added raisins just to decorate it and I wanted to know where they would end up after baking it..

..Mixture in the oven and this is the part where I went "OhMyGosh, my cupcakes are MUTATING! O.O "..

Well, some of them didn't out to be so nice but hey, it's not about looks. It's the inside that counts. ^^ They turned out to be larger than the normal cupcakes but weren't exactly muffin-size. So, I guess it was alright.

As you can see, some of them are like aliens. Are you looking at the same cupcake as me? Alright, let me show you the one that I looked at all the time.

..This one!..

..The normal looking one :) ..

Did the plan work in the end? Nope.
Did I have a back up plan? Nope.
What did I learn from this? Take risks and learn while you still can in anything you do especially when it doesn't involve lives and when you know it won't harm anyone.

Before I forget (again)...

It has been 5 years and nearly 1 month. Yes, I do count the years. ^^
