Instructions
How to make Cupcake Base recipe
- Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C) and line your cupcakes pans with 15 liners.
- Measure out all items and set on your work surface
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In another bowl cream together the softened butter/margarine, oil, sugar and vanilla extract for 5 minutes in this manner: cream on medium speed for 1 minute then increase mixer's speed to the highest and cream for 3 minutes.
- Add 3 eggs and mix for 2 minutes with mixer. This makes mixing time to be 5 minutes
- Next using your spatula, add in your milk, and vinegar and fold in.
- Add dry items mix into wet items bowl and use your spatula to stir well or fold in to combine. This is the base recipe
For other flavours :
- First start by weighing and dividing your base recipe into the number of flavours you want. In this case I'm making 5 flavours. So I weighed my total cake batter to give me 818g. Then I divided that by 5 which came up with 163.6g that I approximated to 164g. So four flavours were weighed to be 164g while the fifth flavour wasn't up to that. See video to understand better.
- 📍 Chocolate Cupcake making: Add all items into base recipe and mix to combine. Then pour into 3 cupcake tins already lined.Repeat same for other flavours. At the end you should have 15 cupcakes in 5 different flavours; where each flavour has 3 cupcakes
- Tap your cupcake tins on a flat surface to level them and release air incorporated when mixing
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the toothpick comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then carefully remove and allow to cool completely.
