Birthdaybake...Follow the recipe to create 12 birthday cupcakes!

Cupcake mixture: 110g softened butter

110g caster sugar

2 large eggs

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

120g self-raising flour

Ingredients:

Ask an adult to preheat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and fill the cupcake

tray with 12 cases. If you have a smaller tray you can repeat this step once

you have baked the first round of cupcakes.

Add 110g of softened butter and 110g of caster sugar to a bowl and using a

whisk mix together. When the mixture turns pale and fluffy whisk in the 2 large

eggs, one at a time.

Add in and whisk the 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and 120g of self-raising flour

and spoon the mixture into the cupcake cases. Remember if you have a

smaller cupcake tray you will need to leave enough mixture to fill the

remaining cases.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and you can insert a skewer into

the center and it comes out clean, if there is mixture on the skewer you may

need to bake for a little longer. Leave your cupcakes to cool out of the baking

tray.

Time to decorate! We want to see your creative side when it comes to this

part. You could use buttercream, royal icing, fondant or glace icing. You could

add food colouring, sprinkles or fondant models.
