....Don't answer that, because I am sure you can believe that. BUT thankfully for me, the recipe still turned out chocolatey and peanutty, which is exactly what I was hoping for! Should you want s lightly more decadent chocolate flavour though, I would suggest adding cocoa powder!
Top these with whatever you like, be it chocolate, peanut butter (both?!), chopped nuts, cream cheese frosting. There are so many options, and I am sure you already have something in mind by now!
The original recipe called for lots of eggs, but I decided just to opt for one, and I got four lovely little cupcakes out of it. I tweaked the recipe quite a bit, used what I had and this is the result!
Snickers Cupcakes
(Makes 4)
1 egg
2 tbsp low-fat (Greek) yogurt
100ml semi-skimmed milk
3-4 drops stevia (optional, but if you use it, then chocolate or vanilla will do the trick!)
1 tsp coconut flour (optional)
20g chocolate protein powder
20g peanut flour
20g sukrin icing sugar (or xylitol, you can of course use normal icing sugar too)
1 tsp xanthan gum (optional)
1 tsp unsweetened cocoa
Chocolate, sprinkles, chopped nuts for topping
- Start by pre-heating the oven to 180°C.
- In a small bowl, mix all the dry ingredients. Make a well in the middle and pour in the egg, yogurt, stevia and milk. Stir well to combine, you should end up with a thick waffle-like batter. If you need more milk, then I am sure 50ml will do the trick. The 100ml did it for me.
- Divide the mixture into four cupcake cases, and pop them into the oven, leave to bake for about 20 minutes. Tap them gently to check that they are cooked.
- Leave to cool on a wire-rack, whilst deciding on which topping you want to use! I simply melted two squares of dark chocolate. To do this, simply break up the chocolate into small pieces, place them in a small bowl (I used a small, Chinese tea cup), pour some hot water in a bigger bowl, and place the small bowl with the chocolate into it, allowing for the chocolate to melt. I also placed the big bowl in the oven after I had switched it off, using the last of the heat to hurry the process along a little.
Once cooled, frosted and decorated - it's ready to serve!

Mmm! Elsker snickersmaken - kombinasjonen mellom sjokolade og nøtter er uslåelig :) Dette såg nydelig ut!
ReplyDeleteJa, ikke sant? Skulle bare ha toppet med noen opphakkede nøtter, så hadde disse blitt enda litt bedre til og med! Overraskende mettende :D
DeleteGleder meg til og se flere godsaker fra deg også Linda, du er så flink! x
Ha! At least it was only missing a teaspoon of cocoa! These sound so good!
ReplyDeleteI know! I guess it could have been a lot worse, will remember it next time though!
DeleteAs for ways to getting your protein, this is definitely one of my favourites! Thanks for dropping by Katrina :D x
Hei :) Jeg så du kommenterte på en annen blogg at de ikke hadde speltlomper der du bor. Ville bare fotelle deg at å lage sine egne speltlomper er kjempeenkelt, og de smaker enda bedre enn de man kjøper :) Oppskrift finner du her iallefall, om du skulle være interessert i å prøve :) God påske!

Hei Marte!
DeleteHerlighet så gode de lompene så ut da gitt, tuuusen takk for oppskrift ^ ^
God påske til deg også frøken! x
I will eat anything that tastes like a Snickers bar! Yum!
ReplyDeleteCheers Amanda! These aren't AS bold in flavour as the mighty snickers, but me oh my the peanut and chocolate combination is so good! :D x
