EASY CUPCAKES
Makes 24 cupcakes
My daughter has a cake sale on, so I helped her make these easy cupcakes. They fun and easy and taste very delicious too.
250 g butter
3 cups of cake flour
1 ½ cups of sugar
2 eggs
4 teaspoons of baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
1 cup of milk
Sift flour and baking powder together and place into your mixing bowl.
Add rest of the ingredients and use an electric beater and beat for 3 to 5 minutes until everything is combines and you have a smooth consistency.
Line your muffin pan with paper cups. Pour ¼ cup of the mixture in each and bake at 180 degrees for 25 minutes.
For the icing
2 egg whites
¾ cups of coconut
½ cup of castor sugar
few drops of pink or any other colour you prefer
Whisk egg whites until stiff.
Fold in the sugar, coconut and food colour.
Place on each baked cupcake.
Finally put back in your cool oven (Switched off) for 5 minutes to let the frosting set.
