Today I made some chocolate orange cupcakes, they work out at maximum a syn each. Here's what, when, how...
Makes 12 nommy cakies
3 eggs
4-5 tbspns sweetener
1 tspn orange extract
sachet Options chocolate orange (2 syns)
28g wholemeal SR flour (4.5 syns)
Separate eggs, whisk whites until standing stiff.
In another bowl whisk egg yolks, sweetener and orange extract.
Fold in approx. 1/4 of the whites to loosen the yolk mixture, then gradually add and fold in the flour/options mix.
Fold in the remaining egg whites and put in 12 cupcake cases.
Bake at 180 degrees (170 degrees in a fan assisted oven) for 10-12 minutes.
Leave to cool.
I mixed quark, sweetener, a drop of orange extract and yellow and red food colouring and piped this on as a topping. I then used a diddy Dr Oetker chocolate nobbly fing (I picked out all the orange ones!) to finish them off.
I don't know how many syns one of these chocolate nobblies is, but I doubt it's that much that it will mean the cakies are more than 1 syn each.
If you top them with quark they're best kept in the fridge - although they won't be around long enough in my house for me to worry that they'll go off!... lolz
