Cheddar Cheese Cupcake

This recipe was shared from a new friend in FaceBook. She was my secondary school senior and she is really good in baking! This cupcake texture similar to chiffon cake, definitely a good bite for tea break.

Ingredients:
Serves 12
Part A: 4egg yolks
            60ml milk
            50g caster sugar
            60gm melted butter
            120g cake flour/ superfine flour
            1tsp baking powder
            1/4 tsp salt
            1tsp orange zest/lemon zest
Part B: 4 egg whites
           50gm caster sugar
           1/2 tsp cream of tartar
150gm grated cheddar cheese

Steps:
1) Hand whisk ingredients (A) to a smooth batter. Leave aside
2) In a clean n dry mixing bowl, whisk egg whites and cream of tartar until foamy. Add sugar and continue whisking till stiff.
3) Add egg yolks mixture into egg whites batter. Mix well. Do not overmix. Add in half the grated cheese. Overmix will cause the cake texture hard.
4) Spoon the mixture batter into muffin pans.If you are not using any paper cups, remember to grease the pan.
5) Bake at 180C for 20-25mins(depends on the size of ur cupcakes, cake is done when skewer comes out clean) Recomended to check ur cakes after 20 mins, if it is not done, continue with another 5 to 10 minutes.

Enjoy!
