 CARROT CUPCAKE
INGREDIENTS
Cupcake:
1 pound Carrots, finely shredded 1 tsp Baking Soda
3 pieces Large Eggs 2 tsp Baking Powder
1/3 cup Buttermilk 1 tsp Salt
1 3/4 cup Sugar 1 tsp Cinnamon Powder
1 1/2 cup Vegetable Oil 1 tsp Ground Ginger
1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract 1/8 tsp Ground Cloves
1/2 cup Golden Raisins 1 cup Walnuts, toasted and coarsely
3 cups All-purpose Flour chopped (optional)
Frosting :
3 sticks Unsalted Butter, softened 1/4 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 pack 8-oz Cream Cheese, softened Orange and Green Food Color for carrot
400 grams Confectioner's Sugar (3 1/2 c), decoration (optional)
sifted


 Preheat oven at 350F (around 180C).

1 Sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt. Set aside.
2 In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until light colored, then add the buttermilk, vegetable oil,
vanilla extract and the spice mix of cinnamon powder, ground ginger and ground cloves. Stir in
the raisins.
3 Whisk or mix together the dry and wet ingredients until fully incorporated. Fold in the nuts
(optional).
4 Scoop on to individual paper-lined muffin tins and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until a
toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
5 Set aside the cupcakes to cool down completely before frosting.

6 To make the Frosting , beat or whisk together softened butter, cream cheese and vanilla
extract.
7 Add the confectioner's sugar a cup at a time, beating thoroughly.
8 Pipe onto completely cooled carrot cupcakes.
9 (Optional Step) To make the carrot decorations on top, prepare 2 bowls with 1/4 cup of the
frosting each -- color one in orange, the other in green.
 10 Using 2 small ziplock plastic bags, place the tinted frostings in each bag, and cut out a small
hole at one corner for each. Pipe the orange carrot first for all the cupcakes, then do the green
leaves next. (Press heavily at first for the thicker part of the carrot, then lightly as you go to the
thinner end, then release -- same with the green leaves).
11 Your cupcake is ready to eat. Enjoy your vegetable dessert!

BENG'S TIPS:
- Buttermilk makes the cake more tender and the tangy flavor cuts into the sweetness of the cake
-- but if not available, make your own buttermilk by stirring together 1/2 cup of milk with 2 1/4
tsp white vinegar and set it aside until it thickens or curdles -- about 15 to 20 minutes. Stir before
using.
- This cake has to be refrigerated until ready to serve. The frosting is not as stable as
buttercream and the cream cheese could become runny and easily go bad if left out at room
temperature for more than couple hours.
- For those who are not crazy about putting frosting on cakes or cupcakes, just dust the top
generously with confectioner's or icing sugar using a sieve.
- The recipe can be made into a cake, as well - divide the batter equally in 2 8-inch or 9-inch
round cake pans and bake at same temperature but for 30 to 35 minutes. Level the cakes and
put 1 cup of frosting in between. Frost the cake top and side and apply (to cover the side) with
toasted, coarsely chopped walnuts.

 Pizza Dough

If its your first attempt at making pizza dough, it is best to keep ingredients as few and
simple as possible.

Dough

2 cups of flour

cup of warm water (Make sure water is warm and not hot, and opt for fibrous flour instead
of white)

1 envelope of active dry yeast

1 tablespoon of sugar

1 teaspoon of salt

2-3 tablespoons of olive oil.

 Toppings

150 grams mozzarella cheese or 1/2 cup sliced button mushrooms

quick melt, grated
4 tablespoons sliced black olives
1 medium-sized white onion, minced
20 pieces pepperoni slices
1 large-sized green bell pepper, slice
thinly 5 slices ham, cut into small squares

1/2 cup pineapple tidbits 1/4 cup beef toppings/nuggets


 How to Make Pizza Dough

1. In a small bowl, sprinkle the yeast on the warm water and stir to dissolve it. Set aside until the
yeast starts forming bubbles in about 5 minutes.
2. Sift the flour. Pour the flour into a large bowl or on a work surface. Mold the flour in a mound shape
with a hole in the center.
3. Pour the yeast mix in the center , then the olive oil and a pinch of salt.
4. Using a spatula, draw the ingredients together.
5. Then mix with your hands to form a dough.
6. Sprinkle some flour on the work surface. Place the pizza dough on the floured surface.
7. Knead the pizza dough briefly with your hands pushing and folding. Knead just long enough for the
dough to take in a little more flour, and until it no longer sticks to your hands.
8. With your hand, spread a little olive oil inside a bowl, then transfer the dough into the bowl.
9. On the top of the pizza dough, make two incisions that cross, and spread with a very small amount
of olive oil. This last step will prevent the surface of the dough from breaking too much while rising.
10. Cover the bowl with a kitchen cloth, and set the bowl aside for approximately 1 2 hours until the
dough doubles in volume. The time required for rising will depend on the strength of the yeast and
the temperature of the room.
11. When the dough is about double its original size, punch it down to eliminate the air bubbles.
12. On a lightly floured work surface, cut the dough into three equal pieces.

15. At this point, the pizza is ready to receive its toppings (see recipes). Add onto the pizza your
preferred toppings. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper if indicated by the recipe.
 * Cook the pizza in a regular oven at 500 F (260 C) for about 2025 minutes.

removing the pizza from the oven.
* To check for readiness, lift one side of the pizza. The pizza is ready when the bottom surface is
light brown.
