RECIPE IDEAS
Vanilla Sponge Cupcakes:
Ingredients:
• 115g Self Raising Flour
• 100g Butter (room temperature)
• 115g Caster Sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Essence
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
This mixture will make approximately 14 Cupcakes.
Instructions:
1. Sift the flour into an adequate sized bowl.
2. Roughly break the room temperature butter into chunks, add them
to the bowl, along with the sugar, the eggs, vanilla essence and the
baking powder.
3. Stir or blend the mixture well until smooth and creamy.
4. We do suggest you add some sunflower oil spray, to the Cupcake
Maker to eliminate the possibility of sticking (a thin layer of butter/
margarine can also be used).
5. Now using a spoon, decant the mixture into the Cupcake cavities
leaving space for the mixture to expand, once you have done this
close the lid and turn the machine on at the switch.
6. Leave for 7-8 minutes and check for browning around the sides of the
cakes. They may need to be left for a further 1-2 minutes. Once you
are happy you can switch off the machine and leave to cool for a
few minutes before removing with a wooden or plastic utensil.
7. Decorate your cakes as desired.
