A little recipe!

Here is a recipe i'd like to share for some really cute little butterfly cupcakes, not the most complicated or elaborate things but they are cute and taste good so why not?!

Ingredients:
115g caster sugar
115g butter
115g flour
2 eggs
1 teaspoon (5ml) baking powder
1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract

For the buttercream icing:
Mix 50g margarine with 100g icing sugar

1)Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and put the cupcake cases into the tray
2)Mix the sugar and butter together until it looks kind of like this:

3)Whisk the eggs then add them to the butter and sugar
4)Add the flour whilst mixing
5)Add baking powder and vanilla making sure everything is mixed together
6)Pour into the cases and bake for 15-20 minutes
7)Remove the cupcakes from the tray to let them cool the cut out a small circle from the top of the cupcake and cut it in half - these are the wings. Spread a small amount of jam onto the part of the cupcake which you removed the top of and then put a blob of buttercream on top of the jam. Place the two wings on the buttercream and dust with icing sugar.
8)Voila!! cute little butterfly cupcakes!
