eggless malt cupcakes with malt buttercream

Hi guys........back again with the eggless version of the malt cupcakes..I  had a few enquires on how to make these malt-cupcakes-with-malty-buttercream.  eggless.........so after experimenting ........here it is ..ta da!

INGRDS
1 cup wholewheat flour(atta),1/2 cup oats.1/2 cup all purpose flour
1 cup curd(yogurt)
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup malt(chocomalt,ovaltine,horlicks etc)
1/2 tsp baking soda.1/2 tsp baking powder(I will reduce the bakng soda to 1/4 tsp next time)
1 tsp vanilla essence
1/2 cup oil
FOR THE BUTTERCREAM ICING
50gms butter
2 tablespoons powered sugar
4 tablespoons choco malt(or any of the other malt products)
2-3 tablespoons milk
METHOD
1.Since this comes from my kitchen..you know we are going to take the easy way out!Seive the dry ingrds and keep ready(the flours,and the b.p and b.s.add the oats )
2.In your blender,add the curd,sugar,oil,essence,blend.....then pour onto the dry stuff.mix.
3.Preheat your oven,and pour this mix 3/4 th way into the cupcake wrappers(which are sitting in a muffin pan).Bake for 25-30 mins at 180degC.

4 Now....heres the thing....these guys were awesome 15 mins into the oven..all rounded tops...like a cupcake should be...infact they could've gone for cupcake modelling...then they decided to flop down...sad...sad!......bUT.......once cooled and iced..they tasted pretty good.

ICING

Beat the butter and sugar till light and fluffy,add the milk and the chocomalt,beat again.........then ice generously the waiting...cooled cupcakes.

Malt cupcakes with malty buttercream

First and foremost a very big thank you to all the people who commented on my previous post.............I'm really touched by the kind words and feel really blessed to know such wonderful people..........I know I've not even met most of you........but you guys make the world a better place.

Onto this recipe.........a friend had asked me what to make chocomalt,well one recipe is the
  malty-walty-banana-cake..........and this would be another that I thought of ,when I should have been doing some other work!(for example studying!)Anyway I tried it out...and I'm sorry if I sound a little immodest when I say this...but they were superb!Do try out the whole thing NOT just the cupcakes...........it has to be with this yum buttercream...I completely agree that the icing is not going to win any beauty contest.....BUT..it has character....and character is good!
INGRDS
3 eggs
1 cup wholewheat flour plus1 cup all purpose flour sieved together with 1 tsp baking pdr
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup chocomalt(maltova,ovaltine,nutramul,horlicks..whatever)
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp vanilla essence
FOR THE BUTTERCREAM ICING
50 gms butter
2 tablespoons powered sugar
4 tablespoons choco malt(or any of the other malt products)
2-3 tablespoons milk
THE WAY TO DO IT!
1.Put ALL the ingrds for the cake(eggs etc)in a bowl,use your hand held mixer and beat till nice and smooth,3-4mins.
2.Put the cupcake wrappers into the muffin pan........now put spoonfulls of the batter into the wrappers till 3/4th way up(if you don't have the wrappers,simply butter the muffin moulds and dust with flour...then pour the batter 3/4th into each mould...........its easier and less messy with the cupcake wrappers)

after the heat treatment!

3.Bake in a preheated oven (180degC)for 20-25 mins.(put a shewer in /or a toothpick....if there is no batter sticking to it...your cupcakes are done)
ICING
1.Beat,with your hand held mixer the  softened butter and sugar,till light and fluffy,add the chocomalt and the milk...beat again....the texture should be spreadable.

2.Ice with a tsp.....put onto the cooled cupcakes.....decorate with whatever you have....I had mini marshmallows......I don't get malteasers in my neck of the woods....but if you can lay your hands on it ...then one malteaser on each cupcake would look awesome....grated chocolate would be nice too.sending this to http://www.alittlenosh.net/2012/08/tastetastic-thursday-89/#comment-8559..........tastetastic thursday.
