Cupcakes





*

Good evening!
I just finished baking some cupcakes for tomorrow. 
tomorrow is our teachers last day sort of, so we are having a "FIKA" with her tomorrow in school. So I made some cupcakes. They don't look super good but they taste amazing. 
I will talk more with you tomorrow hopefully. 

Love, Erika

Cookies




*

Today I've been selling cookies at the annual christmas market. You see in school we have to create a company that we will run and be in charge of for a year. 
And I have decided to create a recipes book with gluten free and lactose free recipes. 
But I'm not done with it yet so I decided to sell cookies today. 
That way I could try out some of the recipes. 

The day all in all was good and I did actually win the price for best display and showcase, so that was  good!

Now I'm going to eat some of the cookies that are left and drink some tea. 
Hope your day was as good as mine was! 

Birthday At IKEA






*

I woke up this morning and spent my birthday morning eating breakfast with my family. 
Then after that we did something that most people would find weird to do on their birthday. 
We went to IKEA. 
This is not just because I'm Swedish, I asked to go to IKEA on my birthday. 
The reason why...I love home decor and I wanted to buy some new stuff for my room, plus I really wanted a new bed. 
But over all my birthday was great. 
I ate a lot of cupcakes today so I'm all hyped up!

Birthday Dinner








*

Yesterday I celebrated my birthday(the day before my birthday) with some of my relatives and I had a blast. 
We ate good food and some amazing desserts. 

Minnie Mouse Cupcakes


Cupcakes are one of my favorite things in life, and it comes shortly after traveling and looking at pictures of 5SOS (you know, not in a creepy way, but in a cute and adorable way) and of course spending time with my family and friends. 

This recipe is from my recipe book from hummingbird bakery in London. And as I think that the best part about cupcakes is to design them, I did today decide to make Minnie Mouse themed cupcakes. And well… I would say that I’m very happy with the way they turned out.



Ingredients for muffin 
100 g flour
20 g Cocoa
140 g sugar
1 ½ tsk baking soda
One pinch of salt
40 g unsalted butter
1 ¼ dl milk
1 egg

¼ tsk vanilla extract 

*

How to do

Start with turning up the oven to 175 C.

Then blend the flour, cocoa, sugar, baking soda, salt and butter in a bowl with a electric whisk at a low speed. 

Now blend the milk, egg and the vanilla extract in a new bowl. Pour half of milk mix into the flour mix and blend it on a high speed until all of the lumps are gone. 

Pour down the rest of the milk mix and blend it at a lower speed. Blend until it looks smooth. 

Put the batter in the muffin forms and fill up 2/3 of the form. Let them be in the oven for 20-25 minutes and then take them out. Let them cool down and start with the icing.

Ingredients to icing

300 g icing sugar
50 g unsalted butter
125 g cream cheese
And vanilla extract if you want

*

How to do

Blend the icing sugar and the butter and whisk it in a middle speed. Then pour in the cream cheese and the vanilla extract and blend again until it’s a smooth batter. And now it’s done and it’s time to start decorating the cupcakes.

All of the measurements are in Swedish measurements so if you are from another country you might have to convert them.
