Here is the place to post any fabulous cupcake recipes you may want to share with me!

(or any other recipes for that matter)

Here is my favourite tried and tested recipe (it's a David Herbert recipe):

1 and 1/2 cups SR flour
125g unsalted butter (softened)
3/4 cup caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla essence
2 eggs beaten
1/2 milk

*Preheat oven to 180 degrees C
*Line a 12-hole cupcake tin with paper cases
*Shift flour into large mixing bowl
*Add remaining ingredients and beat with an electric beater on low speed until mixture is just combined. Don't over beat the mixture.
*Increase the speed to medium and beat for 3 mins until pale and smooth
*Spoon mixture evenly into patty cases.
*Bake for 15-20 mins, or until golden and firm to touch
*Cool on a wire rack
*Once cool, ice and decorate as desired (I love basic butter cream icing and sugar flowers or 100s and 1000s)

I wish I could make cupcakes that look like the Crabapple Bakery (in Prahran Market, Melbourne) ones:
