Orange Cupcakes

Cupcakes are easy to make. Anyone can make this...of coz not the extravaganza recipe lah. I normally make orange cupcakes using those orange that is not edible. Not edible here means too sour lah... not rotten orange.

The recipe is ingrain in my head. Here you go.

Ingredient: 250gm self raising flour 1 block of butter (250g) 220gm self caster sugar (i reduce it to 210 from 250g) 4 eggs Orange juice (from 2 oranges) Orang rind (from the oranges) 1 teaspoon of baking powder (i dunno i just add this, some told me that you do not need it when using self raising flour... tak tau lah)

Note: The cakes shown in the pictures are those bake without baking powder using normal flour as I wanted to see what happen w/o baking powder...experiment mah. Note 2: See the recipe is so easy... everything is 250g. How can one forget?

Method: 1. Mix and blend the sugar and egg till soft. Add in the egg (one at the time, beats me why we do that).

2. Add in the orange juice and rind. Continue mixing. Add in flour and baking powder (few spoons at one time), mix. 3. Pour into cupcakes mould and bake. Remember to preheat the oven. Bake at 180C for about 10 to 15 mins depending on the type our your oven.

Bottomline bake till it is brown outside. You can take it out and test it by using toothpick (clean one) and poke it into the cake. If the pick comes out dry and clean, your cake is done. Simple right?
