Cream cheese banana cupcakes

Still got some bananas sitting in my fridge..... wondering what cake should i do and while looking through I saw some cream cheese.... been there for quite some times.....

250 g cream cheese
250 g self raising flour
150 g sugar
300g mashed bananas
4 eggs
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
100 ml milk
some chocolate chips for decoration

Sift flour together with the baking soda and baking powder

1) beat cream cheese and the sugar till fluffy
2) add in egg one by one
3) fold in the flour and milk
4) then the banana
5) spoon into paper cup 3/4 full
6) sprinkle some chocolate chips on top

Bake 180 C for 35 minutes

make about 15 cups

My kids love it with some whip cream on top

100g plain flour
2 tsp baking powder

100g castor sugar

combine A in a bowl

Beat B until soft peak form. pour in sugar gradually

Fold 1/3 of the B onto A and stir gently.
Once mix, Fold back A onto B, and stir gentle will all mix

Slowly pour into chiffon baking tin and bake 180 C for 30 minutes.

Pulau Perhentian Day 1

Due to low peak season, the kitchen are not able to prepare buffet. Reason are too little people. Which are good and bad. Good is got better quality food because we are having it at the restaurant which also cater to outsider. Bad is we got no choice. The kids will be having what we eat...mmmmm

1st day lunch:
Salad: Nice. But I eat the veg and my kids eat the eggs, 2 plate of veg, what a great start


Chicken fillet with spaghetti in mushroom sauce. Very nice


And dessert: Ice Cream


After this meal, they cater the food more to kids. Great to hear that. I think they are quite flexible which consider very good service. Highly recommended

They serve tea-break with
Spicy Char Kuay Teow. Great, how my kids going to eat that.......after this meal, nothing is spicy anymore........


but they serve butter cake too. great for the kids


Dinner time:
Tomyam soup: i almost fall down from my chair, how many time i have to tell them i got young kids.......but......... they got non spicy vegetable soup for the kids......Bingo, so clever

Adult:


Kids


And the meal was so big portion, Fried rice with deap fried fish and chicken, stuff bean curd, cabbage with anchovies,fried egg and some fish crackers. very nice but I can't finish, not to mention that they served 2 plates for my 2 toddler also. One plate left untouch. feel so wasteful,


You like all the food here, they got a restaurant at KL too that serve the same food. bubu restaurant.
