Ingredients

1 egg
6 tbsp (75 gr) granulated sugar
1 1/4 cups (150 gr) all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup (125 ml) whole milk
1/4 cup (55 gr) margarine/butter, melted
Chocolate sprinkles

Instructions

Mix egg and granulated sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Add dry ingredients – Sift in all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix with the egg mixture.
Add milk gradually to prevent lumps. Whisk with each addition until smooth and well incorporated.
Add margarine and whisk until well combined.
Cook the cakes – Heat a takoyaki pan on low heat. Grease the cavities with margarine. Pour the batter into the cavities about 80-90% full. Top with chocolate sprinkles. You can cook the cakes until well done or half done based on your preference. The cakes are well done when the top is dry. The half done version is when the bottom of the cakes has firmed up but the top is still undercooked, shiny, and melty.
Remove the cakes from the cavities using 2 skewers.
Serve warm or at room temperature.
