I know so because I have baked some cakes and cupcakes with much success.
My latest baking adventure is something which I just whipped up, off the top of my head, without any recipe whatsoever.
Last night, I had a craving for something chocolatey but it was too late for me to do anything. So, when morning came, I decided I should whip up something right away before the craving wears off.
It didn't take long before I settled down and savoured the fruits of my labour (no sweat at all) with my usual cup of black coffee. And it turned out just the way I imagined. Even my mom liked it. The taste and texture reminded her of rum balls.
