  • We put the eggs in a bowl with the sugar and beat until they lighten a bit (it doesn't need to double in volume).
  • Next, we add the oats, baking soda, baking powder, and cocoa. We beat until everything is integrated. We add the oil and beat again.
  • Now we add the flour and milk, alternating them and beating between each addition (flour, beat, milk, beat, flour, beat...).
  • Once we have the batter ready, we pour it into our cupcake liners (and these into some rigid mold; I use the disposable flan molds sold at chinos).
  • Then we place it in the oven at 180º (preheated) for about 15 minutes. When inserting a skewer, it should come out without any liquid batter on it. Once done, we take them out and let them cool on a rack (without the flan molds).
  • For the topping, we put the well-chilled cream in a bowl, add the sugar and the curd, and beat with electric whisks until it forms stiff peaks.
  • When it's well whipped, we add the food coloring and carefully fold it in with a spatula, being careful not to deflate the cream. We add coloring until we achieve the color we like best.
  • We put the cream in a piping bag and store it in the fridge. By the way, I didn't decorate all of them; I decorated about 7. If you plan to decorate them all, make double the amount of topping.
  • We also add almond pieces to the topping.
