Halloween Cupcakes

Ingredients:
220g Self Raising Flour
220g Caster Sugar
220g Softened Butter
4 Eggs
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
3 tbsp Whole Milk

Buttercream Frosting:
125g Softened Butter
300g Icing Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 tbsp Whole Milk
Green Food Colouring

To Make:
Preheat your oven to 180°C.  In a large mixing bowl cream together the butter and sugar until the mixture is pale and fluffy. To this add the eggs and the vanilla extract, beat well until smooth. Fold the sifted flour into the mixture adding a little milk. Spoon the mixture evenly into 12 paper cases and bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until golden. 

For the buttercream frosting beat the butter until smooth and gradually add the icing sugar mixing until completely combined. Once the buttercream frosting is smooth add the vanilla extract, one tablespoon of milk and a few drops of green food colouring. Pipe the buttercream on top of each cupcake and decorate to taste, I used sugar paper shaped as bats and editable green sprinkles.

Enjoy!
