Recipe: Butter Cupcakes
















This recipe makes 12 regular sized cupcakes.

Ingredients:
------------------
120g unsalted butter
120g caster sugar
120g self-raising flour
2 beaten eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
Chocolate chips
Medium sized paper cases

Method:
------------
Preheat oven at 180 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
Cut butter into cubes and cream it in an electric mixer. Add sugar and cream till sugar dissolves and mixture is light and creamy.
Sift flour into a bowl.
Keep the mixer on and add eggs and vanilla essence. Beat till well combined.
Add flour gradually into the electric mixer.
Arrange paper cases into muffin tray. Use 2 spoons to scoop the butter mixture into the paper cases.
Sprinkle chocolate chips onto the mixture.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes till golden brown.

Ingredients such as chocolate chips taste great with these cupcakes. Do not mix these ingredients into the cake mixture and stir, as they will sink to the bottom during baking. Instead, sprinkle them on top of the cake mixture before placing in the oven. During baking, the mixture will rise and cover these ingredients beautifully.
