Kiddie Cup-Cakes

For this u need to make cup-cakes
Today i'll give u the recipe for an EGG-LESS cake as a cake recipe with egg has been already given before so if u want u may follow that one also

For the Cake Batter :
125 gms. maida
4 heaped spns. cocoa powder
1&1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
4 tbspns. unsalted butter or malai
3/4 tin condensed milk (milkmaid)
1/2 cup powdered sugar

If using malai, beat it till it thickens like butter & then for just about a minute melt it on a low flame, as soon as it starts melting remove from flame & let it cool for 5 mins.
Add the milkmaid to it & beat well, then add the powdered sugar & continue beating
Sieve together the maida, baking powder, baking soda & cocoa powder
Keep adding these gradually to the liquid & continue mixing gently so that no lumps are formed & u get a smooth batter
If it is too thick add 3-4 tbspns. of water as required
The batter should be smooth but thick in consistency
Immediately pour it in the greased & dusted cup-cake moulds, only fill in the mixture till 2/3 of the mould's height, not more as it needs space to rise
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for approximately 10-12 mins. or until done
Let them stand for 2-3 mins. after they are done, then remove them from the moulds & let them cool down to room temperature for about 2 hrs.

NOTE : U can use this same batter to make a normal size egg-less cake also instead of cup-cakes
The only difference is that it will take approximately 25-30 mins to bake as the quantity is large in one mould

For the Decoration :
Take whipped cream or u may beat the fresh cream till it becomes light & fluffy & u get a peaky consistency
Horizontally slice each cup-cake from the middle to get 2 rounds
Take some sugar syrup (chasni) & spread about 2 spns. on each cake slice
Now place the bottom slice & put a tablespoon full of cream on it, sprinkle some Chocolate-chips & cover with the other slice, again spread enough cream on it & sprinkle some Gems & Chocolate-chips on it
Cut an Oreo cookie into half & place it standing on the top in the center of the cup-cake
Refrigerate for a while or till u serve !
