Strawberry Sundae Cupcakes

This is the cake I made when I married the man of my dreams. I knew this was his favourite cake so I perfected it. Its perfect for cupcakes too, here’s my favourite take on the strawberry sundae cupcakes to use some of our amazing local of strawberries.

Ingredients

225 g salted butter

4 large room temperature free range eggs

1 cup white sugar

200g self raising flour

60ml milk

10ml vanilla extract

1 teaspoon grated lime or lemon

Method:

Beat the sugar and butter with the whisk attachment until light and pale fluffy.  The sugar must be dissolved right through and the mixture should look like a little bit of heaven…all light and fluffy!

 Now put the mixer on to really low and add the self-raising flour, eggs and vanilla and zest.  Mix well to form a smooth batter.

Now pour into a greased cupcake tin or cupcake papers.

Bake for about 15-18 minutes at 170c, until lovely and brown and until a skewer comes out clean from the middle.

Once cooked, remove from the oven and cool!

Once cooled I simply piped these with whipped cream, some sliced strawberries and white chocolate curls or bark.

Happy Baking!
