Bake vanilla cupcakes in 35 minutes. The recipe is good to make on the occasions like birthdays and picnics.


Ingredients:

  • 110g softened butter
  • 110g golden caster sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 110g self-raising flour
  • For the buttercream
  • 150g softened butter
  • 300g icing sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • food colouring paste of your choice (optional)



Method:


Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and fill a 12 cupcake tray with cases.


Using an electric whisk beat 110g softened butter and 110g golden caster sugar together until pale and fluffy then whisk in 2 large eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.


Add ½ tsp vanilla extract, 110g self-raising flour and a pinch of salt, whisk until just combined then spoon the mixture into the cupcake cases.


Bake for 15 mins until golden brown and a skewer inserted into the middle of each cake comes out clean. Leave to cool completely on a wire rack.


To make the buttercream, whisk 150g softened butter until super soft then add 300g icing sugar, 1 tsp vanilla extract and a pinch of salt.


Whisk together until smooth (start off slowly to avoid an icing sugar cloud) then beat in 3 tbsp milk.


If wanting to colour, stir in the food colouring now. Spoon or pipe onto the cooled cupcakes.
