Easy Cupcake Recipe

Easy Cupcake Recipe:

Ingredients:

(This recipe makes 12 cupcakes).

125 gm butter (I use Anchor)

125 gm sugar

125 gm plain flour (mixed with 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/2 tsp bicarbonate soda)

2 eggs

1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

2 tablespoon milk (I use powdered milk mixed with some water)

12 cup cake casings

Optional – raisins, chocolate chips

How to make the Easy Cupcake Recipe:

First; cream butter and sugar. Make sure butter is soft so you spend less time creaming it. Once this mixture becomes fluffy and pale yellow, add in eggs, one at a time. Mix well (I use the electric mixer). Then add vanilla essence. Add in half the flour. Then add some milk. Put in remaining flour and milk and mix on medium speed till all combined.

You can now add raisins or choc chips if you want or you can leave it plain (and make your own butter cream or frosting for the cup cakes).

Fill cup cake casings about 3/4 with batter each. The batter will be enough for 12 casings.

Bake in a 160 degree Centigrade oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until a skewer poked into the cake comes out clean. (Pre-heat oven for 20 minutes before you start mixing your cake batter)

That’s it! And I’ve baked these twice already and both times turned out well. They’re moist, not too sweet and with a rich buttery taste.
