7th Post- Baking of Cupcakes




Hey there comes to the 7th post and I am going to introduce the process of making cupcakes. The process I will list down later on is the simple vanilla cupcakes among variety of cupcakes, thus I hope it can be dedicate to people who wants to bake cupcakes.



Ingredients:

2 1/4 cups purpose flour
1 1/3 cups sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 large eggs


PROCEDURE:

1. First, preheat oven to 350 degrees, then line standard cupcake pans with paper liners.
2. Prepare a large bowl to combine flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Next, add shortening, milk and vanilla and beat with electric mixer for 1 minute on medium speed. While beating, scrape side of the bowl with a spatula.
3. After that, add eggs to the mixture and continue beat for 1 minute on medium speed. Scrape bowl again then continue beat on high speed for 1 minute and 30 seconds until well mixed.
4. Lastly, pour cupcake batter into paper liners until 1/2 to 2/3 full.
5. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in preheated oven. To know whether cake is baked, insert toothpick to center and as result should be come out clean.
6. When the cupcakes are complete baked, cool for 5 minutes in pan then remove and place on wire racks to cool completely.
7. Once cupcakes are completely cooled, frost with own favourite frosting or decorate as own desire.


Usually creams are being used in decorations of cupcakes, if you wish to make cupcakes tastier and nicer you can add some chocolate chips, slices of fruits or even spread jam on top of cupcakes. Making cupcakes as birthday present or cakes can be delight and creative with own creativity. Therefore anyone of you can try to bake some cupcakes during free time if you never try before.
