Baking Chocolate Cupcakes!

Kia Ora Everyone!
Today I baked some cupcakes! I chose to make Chocolate ones, they tasted delicious it was fun making these cupcakes. I think the best part for me was licking the spoon because it was soft and sweet. My brother made brownies and at the end we got to eat them. They tasted so yum that I couldn't resit and eat another one. This is some photos of me making them.
