Ingredients
- 1 & 3/4 cups self-raising flour, sifted
- 3/4 cups caster sugar
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 125g butter, softened
- 3/4 cups milk
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 2 eggs
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract/essence
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt
- 125g butter (for the icing), softened
- 1 ½ cups icing sugar, sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract/essence (for the icing)
Directions
- 1. Preheat oven to 180•C. Paper-line the muffin tray with patty cases.
- 2. Mix dry ingredients in a mixing bowl until well combined. Add in the softened butter and mix them until it becomes a crumbly sandlike texture.
- 3. Place wet ingredients into the butter mixture as you mix. Scrape the batter down the bowl and mix it for the final 20 seconds.
- Using an ice-cream scoop-spoon, scoop into 12 x 1/3 cup capacity muffin pans. Bake for 25-36 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre of one of the cupcakes comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before turning out of pan to cool completely. Store in an airtight container until required.
- 5. Using an electric mixer, beat butter in a bowl until pale. Slowly add icing sugar mixture, milk and vanilla extract, beating constantly until combined.
- 6. Spoon icing into a piping bag with a star-shaped coupler and pipe it on the freshly cooled cupcakes.
