September is a special month for me.. My hubby's birthday is coming & I want to bake a perfect cake for him.Last year I baked a eggless cake and that came out well. Thank god.
I have tried many eggless cakes but most of them are just flops.I was looking for fool proof recipe & came along this with help of my cousin. The recipe was posted in food network & I followed all the steps as mentioned in it.
This is a simple vanilla cupcake recipe yields about 10 cupcakes. The recipe didn't ask for baking soda but I just couldn't hold with out adding as they say old habits won't go so easily :)
I'm not a fan of frosting still tried this strawberry frosting recipe from food network.I'm kind of worried about all the calories in them :)
Go thru my recipe and have a virtual treat of them.
Ingredients
For Cake
11/2 cups of all purpose flour
11/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup sugar
2 Large eggs @ room temperature
3/4 cup unsalted butter melted
1/2 cup milk ( Used 2% fat milk)
2 tsp vanilla extract
For Frosting
1/2 cup butter @ room temp
4 cups Icing sugar
1/4 cup milk ( Used 2% fat milk)
2 tbs strawberries jam
Preheat oven @ 350 degrees F.
Dry Ingredients
Sift all purpose flour & mix baking powder,baking soda,all purpose flour & salt together in a bowl.
Wet Ingredients
In another bowl beat eggs & sugar together till the sugar has dissolved.Then add melted butter & Vanilla one after another to the same bowl & keep mixing it with a hand mixer.
Mix the dry & wet ingredients along with milk.Once the batter is ready set the muffin tin with cupcake sheets and divide the batter equally in them.
Place cakes in oven and bake them @ 350 degrees F for 20mins or till the stick comes out clean. ( I used a tooth pik)
Once they are done cool them on a rack.
Frosting
In a bowl take butter & mix it smooth. Then add sugar to the bowl along with milk and strawberry jam.
Mix it till it comes out smooth & creamy.
Frost once the cakes cool down. They are soft & puffy.
Note:
1. The sugar in the cake was just enough sweet. So if you love sweet you can the sugar in cake.
2. Replace butter with olive oil Or use half butter & half olive oil.
Nice job!!

ReplyDeleteJust after Twenty five years of devoted service, my Sunbeam Mixmaster gave out.
ReplyDeleteWhen I replaced it with an alternative the same product, When I learned
that they just do not create things like they
used to! Therefore I purchased a KA, just like everybody else.
This has been a few years ago now and I still hate that
Kitchen Aid! I do not love that you cannot put ingredients easily as you are blending with out placing the collar and chute to the
bowl, you can't scrape the bowl while the beater is running, it is very messy (something always manages
to fly out the bowl, regardless how cautious I'm), I can't seem to have it set proper so the ingredients
in the bottom of the bowl obtain incorporated into the mixture, and it's just too
big and heavy!
