First, get the decoration ingredients ready - with a cat sniffing everything around if possible :) -
All the stuff for decoration is from Tesco. Found similar things in Migros in Ankara as well.
This is the recipe. I've found it on a website, tested it a few times with different flavours (banana mash, cherries, walnuts, coconut, almond). Whatever you put in it works.
4 eggs
1/2 glass of sunflower oil
1/2 glass of milk
1/2 glass of desiccated coconut
1/2 glass of chocolate chips
2 glasses of flour
1 glass of sugar
a packet of baking powder
Preheat the oven to 170, gas mark 5.
Whisk the eggs with sugar till the mixture is mousse-like. Add other ingredients and give it a good whisk.
(Toss the chocolate chips with flour before you add them in to avoid chocolate melting.)
Pour the mixture in cupcake cases, 1 tablespoon each. If you put more, they will rise out of the cases and you won't be able to decorate.
Place the cases in the tin. put it in the oven and watch them grow in 15 to 20 minutes!
The fun part is yet to come. Preparing your cream! It can be ready cream like the squirty cream you can find in tescos or krem santi in migros.
Divide the cream into cups and colour them. We had three food colours: red, green and yellow.You will most probably have the instructions on their labels, but if not, it's one teaspoonful of each. Red was the brightest, so would recommend it. Then, put it into the "cream squeeze thingy" - or whatever its name is:) - and squeeze it on your cakes.
And the rest is your imagination. Basak did a very good job decorating ours. I gave it a try but they ended up in disaster, they were still edible but were not appealing to the eye. You can tell from the pic which ones I ruined :)
afiyet olsun! :)
