POFFERTJES (TINY PANCAKES)
Poffertjes are traditional Dutch cakes, a bit similar in texture to American pancakes. Poffertjes are cooked in a special cast-iron pan with several small shallow indentations in the bottom. They are usually served as an afternoon snack, not as a breakfast food, and often served with icing sugar. I'm posting this in honour of the Aussie/Kiwi World Tour as we are visiting Europe and didn't see this on Zaar. I haven't tried this yet but am going to go and buy the special pan in the Cleveland Market tomorrow and will try them out. Found the recipe on "Back to your roots".

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and lightly flour three 9- by 2-inch round cake pans, then line the bottoms with waxed paper.
- To make the cake: In a small bowl, sift the cake flour and set aside. In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a small bowl, whisk together the red food coloring, cocoa, and vanilla. Add to the batter and beat well.
- In a measuring cup, stir the salt into the buttermilk. Add to the batter in three parts alternating with the flour. With each addition, beat until the ingredients are incorporated, but do not overbeat. In a small bowl, stir together the cider vinegar and baking soda. Add to the batter and mix well. Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the batter in the bowl, making sure the ingredients are well blended and the batter is smooth.
- Divide the batter among the prepared pans. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the layers cool in the pans for 1 hour. Remove from the pans and cool completely on a wire rack.
- When the cake has cooled, spread the frosting between the layers, then ice the top and sides of the cake with Creamy Vanilla Frosting .

Tips:
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature before starting. This will help the batter mix together smoothly and evenly.
- Use high-quality cocoa powder for the best flavor. A good cocoa powder will be dark and rich in color and have a strong chocolate flavor.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough and dense.
- Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cupcakes.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
- For the best results, use a piping bag to frost the cupcakes. This will give you a smooth and even frosting application.
Conclusion:
These moist and delicious red velvet cupcakes with sizzling frosting are the perfect treat for any occasion. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
