This is from a Japanese website called www.cookpad.com and Chef Mianbao helped me translate. Black sesame is very good to your body. This cupcake or muffin is not too sweet, so you may want to add more sweetness to it. Perfect for a snack, dessert, or breakfast. The sesame powder can be homemade by grinding it in a food processor, or blender. Or you can find grounded ones in your grocery store. The recipe said it yields eight servings, but I made six out of it, so I said it made 6-8 cupcakes
