A self-indulgent blog about places I've been, things I've done and whatever else takes my interest.
I live in Wellington, New Zealand. I love being surrounded by a good coffee culture and have proud weka roots. I enjoy this city's vibrant café scene and was formerly known as Café Chick. I'm into reading, music, baking, dancing, family, eating out with friends, travel and sunshine, so that's what you'll hear about along with whatever else takes my fancy. Join me with a cup of coffee, say hi and let me know what you think.

Well, whatever it is it sounds really delicious! Once you find out what it is, please tell me :)
I'm becoming cooking/baking obsessed lately!
Could be a recipe for a basic kind of chocolate sponge? Make it and see what happens? Could be a very, very basic (and perhaps dry and not very chocolatey) chocolate cake.
Sounds like a basic chocolate cupcake recipe ~ perhaps from your cupcake decorating course?
My first thought would be some variant on pound cake - given the equal weights of sugar, butter, and flour. I say you just bake it and share the results!
OK, so I tried baking the Mystery Recipe tonight. Looking at the mixture, I thought it might be some sort of brownie - it was too thick (and small) for cake or cupcakes and nothing like cookies. I put it in a slice tin and hoped for the best. The result? Nothing to write home about - a flat brownie-ish cake with kind of a non-descript flavour. We had it heated with ice cream. No complaints! :-)
Hi, this is a basic cupcake recipe, I make them all the time, they turn out perfect! Makes 12 cupcakes :)

Thanks, Elly - the more I think about it, the more it makes sense for this to be a cupcake recipe. I should really try it again (as cupcakes this time) and see how it turns out. Cheers.
