Vanilla Cupcake Recipes

It was my Mothers birthday this week and for family birthday George and I usually make the birthday cake.  My Mother does enjoy her sweets but a whole cake is far to much and only bringing half a cake seems kinda rude.
So how do you cake less cake without taking less than a cake??  Simple... you make Cupcakes!!

These cupcakes were light and fluffy and so delicious.  

Ingredients

•  2 cups flour
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 4 egg whites
• 115 grams softened butter
• 1 cup milk
• Seeds from 2 vanilla pods

Method

Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius.

Separate egg and beat the egg whites until they're stiff then set aside. 


In another bowl combine flour, sugar, baking powder, butter, milk and vanilla seeds. Mix until everything is combined into a thick batter.  Fold in egg whites.

Line your muffin tins with cupcake cups and fill halfway with batter and bake for 15-20 minutes until the top springs back when pressed, or when a tooth pick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Top with vanilla butter cream and fresh blue berries.  Add a candle and sing happy birthday.
