Pandan Cupcakes with Gula Melaka Syrup

The best pandan cupcakes ever! Really easy to make and results in fluffy cupcakes that are perfect for eating as it is or for decorating with your choice of icing.

I have been searching through a lot of pandan cupcakes recipe and did not find one that was easy enough for me to bake until I found this amazing recipe.

This is not a pandan chiffon cupcake recipe. It is a regular easy to make pandan cupcake. The texture is light and fluffy but it is not so delicate as to make it difficult to handle. As such, it makes a perfect base for decorating with icing if you are so inclined. I just drizzled mine with a Gula Melaka Syrup.

The cupcakes are just as nice eaten plain. If you would like to fill them with Gula Melaka, you can definitely do that too. That’s what I like about these cupcakes, the cupcakes are so versatile you really can have them any way you like.

If you are eating the cupcakes plain or with some Gula Melaka syrup like mine, try heating them up a little before eating. It’s so delicious warm!

Sago Gula Melaka

A truly classic Malaysian dessert. Served cold with coconut milk and Gula Melaka syrup, it is perfect on a hot day!

Hello hello!

I am introducing a classic Malaysian dessert on Nomsies Kitchen today. It is Sago with Gula Melaka.

It is rather simple to make. Sago pearls are boiled with water and then chilled to make little puddings. It is then served with coconut milk and Gula Melaka (palm sugar syrup). It is really easy to do as most of the time used in its preparation is actually inactive time. My British friends have told me it is somewhat similar to rice pudding.

This dessert is perfect eaten on a hot day. A bite of this and you can just imagine that you are at a beach resort in the Tropics. Ahh, now who wouldn’t want that?
