I use one off Taste

Classic Cupcakes

  • 2 cups SR Flour sifted
  • 3/4 cup caster sugar
  • 125g butter, melted,cooled
  • 2 x 59g eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Queen Natural Vanilla Essence


  1. Preheat oven to 200 deg. Grease a 12 x 1/3 cu capacity muffin pan. I line this with paper cases rather than grease. Combine flour and caster sugar in a bowl. Make a well in the centre.
  2. Add Milk, butter, eggs and vanilla to flour mixture. Using a large metal spoon, stir gently to combine.
  3. Spoon mixure into prepared muffin pan. Bake for 12-15mins, or until skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand in pan for 5mins before transferring to a wire rack to cool.


I and the kids love this recipe, so basic and so nice Sometimes I add choc chips to the mixture as well. Usually whatever looks about right.

ETA: I buy the Lighthouse cake and biscuit SR Flour as it seems to make a more smoother mixture if that makes sense.
