    followed to a tee - was sooooo delicious!!!! Not sure if there will be any left by tomorrow! the cake tastes the way cake used to taste! i'll def add to my favourites and make again. the balance of sweetness was perfect.

    Mine came out a little cone shaped so i will try a slightly cooler oven next time for longer. I did 12 cupcakes for about 15 or so minutes, so probably cooked too fast.

    Thanks so much for the recipe

    Submitted by Sophiemooney on 15. August 2019 - 16:57.

    Baked these today for my daughter to take to school tomorrow. They are very easy and have turned out nice and light and fluffy. They do rise significantly - so I think I over filled the cases a bit too much. Instead of small/medium cupcakes, I do have nice large ones now. Even if I filled the cases a bit less, not sure the batter would make 24? But they are so easy, it would be no trouble to whip up another batch. Next time, I’m just going to double the quantities and have a few left over for home.

    I also reduced sugar to 90g, I also mixed longer on speed 6 (approx. another 20 seconds) and only had my oven on 165 degrees (but I do know my oven runs hot).

    I think this this will be my new ‘go to’ recipe for easy cupcakes.

    I didn’t try the frosting recipe. I always use the buttercream icing recipe from the ThermoBliss blog.

    Submitted by Dingerette on 18. October 2018 - 19:53.

    Great recipe! I made 2 double batches of these today for a school birthday party and family tea tomorrow. I think I got a total of about 50 standard cupcakes, but a few have vanished, so it's a bit hard to tell! I halved the sugar and blended the mix for about a minute on 5 and then 6 and they taste brilliant, light and fluffy and well risen.

    Have had great success with these, made several batches recently, in mini and patty pan. I'll agree with others, they are great for taking to school for birthdays. I did reduce sugar to 100g and temp to 160c. Only half fill pans to rise nicely. Smile

    Submitted by Trees55 on 16. January 2016 - 13:18.

    I'm bad at baking and these turned out perfectly!  I made mini cupcakes with the plain icing from basic cookbook (sugar egg yolk & lemon juice) and dipped them in the sprinkles (no articificial colours brand). They were great to bring to a birthday party.  I removed the wrappings after baking, iced then dipped so they were easy finger food and there was no litter at the party!
