Recipe for making cakes

  1. First, beat the eggs, adding sugar, vanilla, and kefir. In a separate bowl, carefully sift the flour, then mix it with salt and baking powder. Add the resulting mixture to the wet ingredients. Then chop or grind the chocolate and add it to the dough.
  2. Prepare the muffin tins: grease them with butter, then line them with paper cups. Fill the tins about 2/3 full with the batter. Place the baking sheet with the tins in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius (400 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake for about 20-25 minutes.

Be careful, as overdoing it can result in butter. Then add the mascarpone and beat for a few more seconds until the cream reaches a smooth consistency.
  4. Remove the finished cupcakes from the oven and let them cool slightly. Place the frosting in a piping bag or a soft milk carton with a snipped corner. Use this tool to decorate the cupcakes with the sweet filling. Dust the top with cocoa powder.
