Mini Pandan Cupcakes

Pandan and I love everything with pandan flavours. Pandan leaves is commonly used in Southeast Asia countries. The leaves are long, narrow and blade-like leaves. Pandan not only gives and enhance flavours but also makes the dish beautifully soft green.The aroma of pandan is so special, very aromatic. Usually we add pandan flavour in our cakes for chiffon cake or other traditional cakes, desserts, beverages even for savory dish as wrappers.Okay, now let’s talk about these cupcakes. This pandan cupcake’s recipe basically is chiffon cake recipe. Since I’m a big fan of pandan chiffon cake, so no wonder I made this recipe as a cupcake too.  For these cupcakes I just think it is unnecessary to frosting them cause I don’t want the frosting covered the pandan flavour. So I just put a tiny raisins on top to make the cupcakes look sweet.
