Notes
- If you are doing in microwave .. bake them for 2 - 3 mins on high power . Allow to cool for 2-3 mins and relish .
- Don't fill the muffin liners more than 3/ 4 th else it will overflow while baking.
- Curd reacts with baking soda and makes the cake soft and moist . So be gentle while mixing, take care that the mixture should not lose its air particles.
- Always keep an eye when the baking nears the ending time. We don't want our cake to get over baked.
- Once the batter is ready don't allow it to sit for sometime. You have to bake immediately.
