Sponge Cupcakes

Cupcakes!!!!!!!!!! Nom nom nom.....this recipe is sooo easy to make and they are hands down the best sponge cupcakes I have ever tasted. Enjoy!

This is an old recipe so the measurements are in ounces rather than grams but most scales have different units on them these days. If not, google.... :p

Ingredients:

4 Oz Butter

6 Oz Sugar

6 Oz Flour

2 Eggs

2 Tsp Baking Powder

Pinch of Salt

1/2 Cup Milk

1 Tsp Vanilla Essence

Method:

Cream butter and sugar together. Add in rest of ingredients and beat for about 2 minutes. Thats it! Spoon into cupcake cases and bake for about 20 minutes at 180 degrees celcius.

Wait until cupcakes are completely cooled before icing them with whatever topping you like. I've used a basic butter cream. To make this icing, simply mix 250g icing sugar with 1 Tbsp of margarine. Pour in about 2 tablespoons of milk and mix till icing is well combined. Add more milk if icing is too hard, however be careful not to add too much!

*** To make coffee cupcakes, replace the milk with black coffee ***

Garnish cupcakes with rose buds, sprinkles, chocolate etc :)
