Chocolate Blueberry Cupcake

Last weekend, I had hubby to take care of Atalie so that I can do some baking. Been sourcing around, with ideas from here and there, I came up with this. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures as I was too tired after a few hours of baking.

The cupcake was good and refreshing. Something different from what I would usually bake. Texture wise, it's soft and crumbly. Will definately bake this again. Probably will try out a few other more blueberry recipes, so I can quickly use up the blueberry filling that I have. I bought the blueberry filling from Phoon Huat, I must say that it is quite good. Not too sweet, taste is just right.

If you see from my to-bake-list, I'm going to also attempt to bake some cut-out cookies/shortbread. I have some recipes that I have baked before, but it's good to try more recipes. And as I've just bought a new gadget, a lettering imprint set from Germany, suppose it will turn out to be interesting. =) Will update soon ya.

Ps: Some time last year, I had baked some white chocolate cookies. After trying out, I had the combination that I like which I find it close to Subway cookie, will post the recipe here soon too.
