I baked: Chocolate chip cupcakes

Hubby had been working hard in the garden all morning, so while he was working, I baked some of these delicious chocolate chip cupcakes for his tea break. Oooh, how I love the smell of cupcakes baking in the oven!

These little beauties were fluffy and moist on the inside with a crunchy golden top. Needless to say, they were all gone by the end of the day!!

Baby C enjoyed watching the cupcakes baking in the oven (but not as much as she enjoyed eating them :-P)

These chocolate chip cupcakes are best eaten warm with a glass of cold milk :-)
