Steamed Moist Chocolate Cake

Today was Little Bear Ee Sync's last schooling day for the semester, and as usual they had a class party which lasted for about 2 hours. I was not sure of whether to make these or not...(I was thinking maybe jelly is enough) but on my last thought: since he likes this so much, don't bother whether it is suitable or not lah.

This is not the 1st attempt actually, the 1st time i used 2inch muffin cups(or 2 1/2 inch) in diameter.  This time smaller cups--only about 1 inch in diameter...and this made it easier for ES to eat them, He ate so many pieces, and even before I could count actually how many pieces I've made!   But oh, it is not me who made it so yummy, It's the recipe....It's failure-proof ! So easy...nobody would know that actually my batter was lumpy.   :P            Ah yes...I forgot to mention: I really hated scooping the batter into the mini  cups...so tedious!

The recipe?  I got it from here...but later i found out there's another blog with the similar recipe...Looks like everybody is sharing good recipes!   :)     (Ju, here it is:)
