A long time ago I didn't cupcakes and I dont know why. In any case when I found this recipe I loved.:))
They were soft, fluffy and very light, I recommend anyway.
With a cup of tea or coffe are perfect!

DeleteGreat flavor to have in a cupcake! I can see why these would convert you. BTW, I made your ricotta kuchen with (about a cup) of blueberries for Mother's Day. It was a success (all gone!) though I think I should have increased the cooking time a bit more with the (actually frozen) berries. Happy belated Mother's Day!
ReplyDeleteThanks Inger and hope you had a Happy Mothers's day!
DeleteIm sooo happy you made eicotta Kuchen and with blueberries sound amazing and delicious!
Yes to the next maybe you have to let a little more at oven, happens with frozen berries!
Thanks !:)
