Yogurt Sponge Cup Cake

This is a very easy recipe that i came across from Sonia's blog (Nasi Lemak Lover). It is very simple, easy and takes you less than an hour to do the things. The best thing is - The yogurt Sponge cake is extremely spongy, moist and fluffy!!! besides that, it is very light and soft, not oily and not overly sweet.

During this CNY, i baked 3 batches for family and friends. glad that they had nothing to complain about this :)

I love this recipe very much. After baking, the cake did shrink a little but it won't collapse. It remained where it used to be.

I too decorated them with chocolate ganache and peach cuts (to attract the little cousin :P).
