My favourite thing to do is bake and I thought I would share my favourite cupcake recipe. These cupcakes are very easy to make and they taste amazing :)
Ingredients:
->Cupcakes:(Makes 12)
- 110g butter/margarine
- 110g caster sugar
- 2 free range eggs
- 1-2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 110g self raising flour
- 1-2 tablespoons milk
->Buttercream icing:
- 335g icing sugar
- 150g unsalted butter
- 1-2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Sprinkles to top
*Piping bag and icing nozzle.
Method:
(Cupcakes)
-Preheat oven to 180°C.
-Cream the butter and the sugar.
-Add the eggs and the vanilla extract and mix.
-Add in the self raising flour a little bit at a time and mix.
-Then add the milk and mix.
-Spoon the mixture into the cupcake cases and put them into the oven for 10 to 20 minutes or until they are golden brown.
-When the cupcakes are done leave them on a wire tray to cool.
(Buttercream icing)
-Cream the butter until it is smooth. The butter should turn a paler colour then you know it's time to add the icing sugar.
-Sieve the icing sugar and add it to the butter bit by bit. Make sure it is fully mixed.
-Add the vanilla extract and the milk and mix.
-Put the icing into a piping bag with an icing nozzle.
-Begin icing the cupcakes and decorate with sprinkles!
**If you have leftover buttercream icing you can store it in the fridge for 3 days, or the freezer for about 3 months!:) ❤️
