      CHOCOLATE ORANGE CUPCAKES RECIPE
      This Chocolate orange cupcake recipe is good for serving at the festive season with friends.

      Ingredients
      3/4 cup–6oz–175gm butter or margarine
      3/4 cup–6oz–175gm castor sugar
      1 cup–4oz–115gm self-raising flour
      1/2 cup–2oz–60gm cocoa
      3 eggs
      1 orange, the skin finely grated and the juice extracted
      For Decoration
      whipped fresh cream
      slices of fresh oranges or satsumas
      chocolate sprinkles

      Method
      Cream butter or margarine with the castor sugar in a large bowl. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Add the grated orange rind. Sift in the flour and the cocoa. Fold in. Add the orange juice. Place the mixture in individual cupcake cases in a baking tray. Cook at gas 5–190C–375F for 12 to 15 minutes.
      When the cupcakes are cool set them all out ready for decorating. Whip the fresh cream until it is in firm peaks. Do not over beat. I place the cream in a piping bag and put a swirl of cream onto each cupcake. I then top each one off with a piece of fresh orange or satsuma and sprinkle with chocolate sprinkles. These are rich in textures and full of flavour.
      Remember to look at the cupcake store for more ideas and check out my archives for more recipes and decorating ideas Enjoy.

      CHOCOLATE SPRINKLES CUPCAKES
      These cupcakes use the chocolate cupcake recipe and the chocolate icing as a basis for their decoration. I then used chocolate sprinkles to decorate and milk chocolate buttons.

      INGREDIENTS3/4 cup–6oz–175gm butter or margarine
      3/4 cup–6oz–175gm castor sugar
      1 cup–4oz–115gm self-raising flour
      1/2 cup–2oz–60gm cocoa
      1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
      3 eggs
      1 tablespoon of warm water

      METHOD
      Cream butter or margarine with the castor sugar in a large bowl. Add the vanilla extract. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Sift in the flour and the cocoa. Fold in. Add the water. Place the mixture in individual cupcake cases in a baking tray. Cook at gas 5–190C–375F for 12 t0 15 minutes.

      CHOCOLATE ICING
      3/4 cup–4oz–110gm dark cooking chocolate, the type you like
      1/2 cup–4oz–110gm butter
      2 1/2 cups–10oz–290gm icing sugar
      warm water or strong black coffee(choose which you like)

      METHOD
      Put a pan on the stove with a small amount of boiling water. Place a bowl over the top. Put the chocolate in here to melt. In another bowl cream the butter. Add the melted chocolate to the butter, mix. Gradually add the icing sugar and mix well, add the water or coffee in teaspoons to keep the mixture runny and creamy enough to use as icing. I like it quite firm. when the cupcakes have cooled ice each one. I keep a mug of hot water at the side to moisten my spreading knife.
