Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Fillings


I did some bakes for the last cg last Sunday. The recipe was really quick and easy to make. However, the chocolate that I used didn't manage to created the "oozing:" effect. I used our usual milk chocolate. It turn out to be more cakey. But nevertheless, it is still nice with the extra chocolate in the centre. Too busy, hence didn't take any photo of the center portion.
