Cupcake Trio - Strawberry - Tangerine - Blueberry

I don't have much to say about Cupcakes. Everyone loves them. These are miniatures :D I mentioned I really like everything bite sized. Recently Cupcakes are in vogue. The sky is the limit to your imagination. You can have one for every theme. :D





Condensed Milk - 1 tin ( Milkmaid / mithai mate ) - I prefer mithai mate
Butter - 8 tbsp
Vanilla extract - 2 tsp
Refined flour / Self raising flour / Maida - 2 cups
Baking powder - 2 tsp
Soda bicarbonate (meetha soda) - 1 pinch
Fruit Salt - 1tsp
Milk - 1/4th - 1/2 cup
Club Soda - 1/4th cup


METHOD


1) Preheat the oven at 250 degrees.
2) Melt the butter and take it in a mixing bowl. Add the condensed milk and the vanilla extract and keep aside.
3) Seive the flour , Baking powder, fruit salt and soda together in a separate bowl.
4) Add the flour mixture spoon by spoon and mix either with a double beater or mix with a wooden spoon.
5) Add 1/4th to 1/2 cup milk of you think the batter is too thick.
6)Add the soda and beat
7) Spoon this cake batter in cupcake moulds lined with cupcake liners and bake at 180 degrees for about 20 - 25 minutes. ( Note - Do not open the oven once the muffins have been put in.)
8) Check with a wooden tooth pick. If the tooth pick comes out clean, then the cupcakes are done.
