NIGELLA’S CUPCAKES

Ingredients

125g self-raising flour
125g caster sugar
125g soft unsalted butter
2 eggs
Half a teaspoon real vanilla extract (I used vanilla essence)
(At this stage I added some mixed spice and cinnamon)
Approximately 2 tablespoons milk (maybe more as you need to make it into a dropping consistency)

1 x 12-bun muffin tin
12 muffin papers

Preheat the oven to 200C and line the tin with the muffin cases.

It couldn't be simpler to make cup cakes: just put all the ingredients except for the milk in the processor and then blitz till smooth.

Pulse while adding milk, to make for a soft, dropping consistency, down the funnel.

I know it looks as if you'll never make this scant mixture fit 12 bun cases, but you will. I promise you this mixture is exactly right to make the 12 cup cakes, so just spoon and scrape the stuff in, trying to fill each case equally, judging by eye only of course.

Put in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cup cakes are cooked and golden on top. As soon as bearable, take the cup cakes in their cases out of the tin and let cool, right way up, on a wire rack.

I am spoilt as my shop is right next to the most amazing cupcake store here in Wgtn so buy them as opposed to baking them! Yes I know very lazy but when you open the door on a murky morning in welly & the most divine smell is wafting thru your shop.
