I wanted to make Apple Upside-down Cake using a frying pan. I have tried several recipes and methods that I had found on the internet, and all failed. Apple didn’t get soft, Apple was burnt, OR something went wrong always. To cook it on my gas cook top, the frying pan needs to be small. …
I first made Custard Stuffed Cupcakes using my ‘Basic Plain Cupcakes’ batter that was made with Butter instead of Oil. The texture was not right with the soft Custard.

I make my Pound Cakes using 125g of each Butter, Sugar, Eggs and Self-Raising Flour. When you add extra dry ingredients such as Cocoa Powder, I reduce the amount of Flour. However, I tend to use large Eggs, and 3 Eggs weigh about 150g. So, I used 150g each Butter, Caster Sugar, Eggs and ‘Self-Raising …
