Pizza Cupcakes

If you're bored with the same old same pizza that all parties have on at least a table, prepare for a treat. Make a simple and quite fast dish: pizza cupcakes. They are perfect for a small event, when people tend to like bite-size food together with some good company and music. Here is what you'll need to have in order to obtain this tasty recipe:

• a cup and a half of all-purpose flour;
• a couple of tablespoons of white sugar;
• half a teaspoon of salt;
• two teaspoons of baking powder;
• a third of a cup of vegetable oil;
• one egg;
• a third of a cup of milk;
• (optional:) two tablespoons of milk;
• a cup of mini pepperonis;
• a cup of shredded Mozzarella cheese;
• extra cup of cheese and pepperonis;

Start by preheating the oven to 400 Fahrenheit and grease the muffin pan. Combine the sugar, salt and baking powder with the flour. Stir in the egg and milk. Don't forget the vegetable oil when mixing until you obtain a smooth composition. If it's too sticky, you can pour another two tablespoons of milk. Add the pepperoni and cheese before filling two thirds of each muffin cup. Place in the oven for 15 minutes or until it's baked. Shred some extra cheese and pepperonis on top and put to bake for a couple of minutes before serving. Enjoy!
