Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare all the ingredients, then mix the flour + caster sugar + baking soda + salt and set aside

   

2. 2 Put 160 grams of boiling water in a pot and bring to a boil, pour in chocolate beans (or other chocolate for baking, but the sweetness depends on the sweetness of the chocolate and you need to control the ratio of fine sugar), then add cocoa powder + coffee powder into the pot and stir evenly

   

3. 3 After stirring evenly, strain the chocolate paste through a sieve into a basin and refrigerate until it reaches room temperature

   

4. 4 At this time, the oven can start to preheat to 170 degrees. The specific temperature can be adjusted according to the individual oven. Drag the paper into the 12-piece mold for later use

   

5. 5 Take out the cooled chocolate paste, add vegetable oil and mix well, then add eggs + white vinegar + vanilla extract and mix well

   

6. 6 After mixing the egg yolks, sift the mixed and reserved flour into a basin. Use a manual egg beater to make Z-shape strokes to stir the flour evenly until there are no particles. Remember not to stir in circles

   

7. 7 Pour the mixed batter evenly into the paper cups, bake it in the oven at 170 degrees for 22-25 minutes. If you are afraid that it will not be cooked enough, press the cake with your hands to prevent it from collapsing or shrinking, or use a toothpick to test the cake body and it will not stick to the toothpick.

   

8. 8 Leave the cake to cool for later decoration. It is normal for the cake to be a little small.

   

9. 9 Whip the whipping cream well and use a round nozzle or cut the slit directly on a piping bag. Squeeze the cream in the middle of the cupcake. Squeeze more so that it can cover the entire cake surface when pressed down and wrapped in coconut

   

10. 10 After squeezing the cream, start wrapping it in coconut, and then start decorating it according to your own ideas

    

11. 11 This is a picture of the finished product! Because I didn’t have any suitable chocolate beans, and I was lazy and didn’t make the ears, so it turned out to be this animal. I said it looked very different to my children... but I hate how cute it is
