Gayle's lactose free cupcakes forgo the traditional icing and opt for marshmallows instead!
Ingredients
140g light muscovado sugar
100g self-raising flour
50g cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
3 eggs
125ml vegetable oil
3 tbsp Lactofree fresh dairy drink (whole or semi-skimmed)
50g dairy free milk chocolate chips
30g pack mini marshmallows
Instructions
1. Heat oven to 180°C/160°C fan/gas 4.
2. Tip the sugar, flour, cocoa and baking powder into a large bowl. Whisk together the eggs, vegetable oil and milk, then stir together with the dry ingredients until well combined. Add the milk chocolate chips.
3. Place cupcake cases into a 12-hole bun tin. Divide the mixture between the cases, then bake for 20 mins until risen and cooked through. You can now leave to cool and store for up to 2 days in an airtight container.
4. Just before serving (either warm from the oven or cold), arrange marshmallows over the tops of the cakes. Heat grill to medium and pop the cakes under it for 30 secs, watching all the time, just until the marshmallows are lightly browned. Remove and eat straight away.
