Basic Vanilla Muffins

Here is our 2nd attempt... Basic Vanilla Cupcakes that I chance upon while searching for the easiest recipe...


The gals were still having plently of fun, the excitement of baking their own cupcakes is still very experimenting for them.

It didn't really turn out to be what it was supposed to look like.... But anyway they taste nice and yummy after the icing....

Recipe from: Noobcook

Ingredients(makes about 9 mid-sized cupcakes)

110g unsalted butter, cut to small pieces and melted at room temperature

110g caster sugar*

110g self raising flour, sifted1/2 tsp baking powder, sifted

2 eggs

1/2 tsp vanilla essence

- *Note: If you can get vanilla sugar, use half caster and half vanilla caster to enhance the vanilla flavour.

Directions

1. Place all the ingredients in a medium bowl and beat with an electric whisk until smooth and pale (almost as light & fluffy like whipped cream), about 2-3 minutes.

2. Place baking cases in muffin tins. Spoon the mixture into the cases (about half filled).

3. Bake at preheated oven of 175C (350F) for about 20 minutes.

4. Remove the tins from oven and cool for 5 minutes, then remove the cupcakes (if you wish) and cool on a rack.
