Cappuccino Cupcakes

Baked some cappuccino cupcakes today.  Got the recipe from the book 'Bake-a-Boo'.  The recipe said that it can made up to 12 cupcakes but I managed to get only 9 out of this recipe.

Ingredients :

1 cup self raising flour (sifted)
1/2 cup golden castor sugar
125g butter
1 1/4 tsp vanilla essence
1tbsp + 1/4tsp instant coffee granules
2 large eggs


Method :

1) Beat butter till light and fluffy
2) Add in sugar and beat till just mixed.  Add in eggs one after another followed by the vanilla essence. 
3) Fold in flour and instant coffee granules
4) Pour batter into paper cups and bake for 20 mins in a preheated oven at 200 deg C


The cupcakes turned out fine and yummy.  However, I try not to indulge too much after all they are cakes with lots of butter and sugar.  The kids love it though.
