Categories: Cakes, Snacks, Desserts
Yield: 12 Cupcakes

MMMMM---------------------------ICING--------------------------------
125 g Butter; softened
185 g Icing sugar
Set oven @ 360°F/182°C (320°F/160°C fan).
Line 12 holes in a shallow muffin tin with cupcake cases (not
muffin cases). Cream the butter and sugar together until the
mixture is light and fluffy. Beat the eggs and vanilla in a jug,
then beat into the butter mixture a little at a time.
Fold the flour into the mixture along with a little milk--the
mixture should fall easily off a spoon. Divide the mixture between
the cases, filling each one no more than half full.
Cook the cakes for 12 to 15 minutes--they should be firm to the
touch and slightly golden brown. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes,
then lift them out gently and leave to cool completely.
To make the icing, beat the butter until it is very soft. Beat in
the icing sugar a little at a time, then beat in a splash of the
milk as you need to give you a soft icing that can be piped easily.
Scrape the icing into an icing bag fitted with a star nozzle. Ice
the cakes in swirls, starting in the centre and working outwards.
