Cupcake Recipe that works

4oz self raising flour
40z butter
4oz caster sugar
2 eggs
1 tea spoon of baking powder
1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

 

Whisk the butter then add the sugar then the 2 eggs then vanilla essence
Add flour gradually so it thickens along with baking powder

Then put them in to your cake cases (i usually use muffin cases) and pop them in the oven on gas mark 4 (pre-heated) for about half an hour – 40 minutes. I’d turn the tray round after 15 minutes they are ready when they spring back up when pressed on the top.

That recipe usually makes about 12 cupcakes!

For the butter cream its 150g of butter(soft) whisk that then add 125g of icing sugar then add another 125g of icing sugar……i usually use a box though to make it thicker it pipes  better like that!
