Vanilla Cup Cakes with Chocolate Frosting



Ingredients:

All purpose flour (Maida) - 1 cup
Curd - 1/2 cup
Icing sugar - 3/4 cup
Butter - 3/4 cup
Baking soda - 1/2 tsp
Baking powder - 1 tsp
Vanilla Essence - 2 tsp
Tutti fruity - 1/4 cup


Chocolate Frosting:

Choco Powder - 1 tsp
Butter - 2 tsp
Icing Sugar - 2 tsp
Cherries for decorating.


Method:

Sieve Maida, Baking Soda and Baking Powder together and keep aside. 

Get the butter to room temperature (soft in texture) and add icing sugar (sieved). Add curd and whisk well to get an even mixture. 

Add the dry ingredients to the butter mix. Also add Vanilla essence and tutti fruity to it. Mix it well to get a fine paste.

Fill the cup cake moulds with 3/4 of this batter. This is because the cupcakes raise when they are baked. Bake in the microwave for about 12 to 14 mins. You can see the brown colour appearing on the cakes which is a indication that it is done. Allow the cakes to cool down.

Mix all the frosting ingredients and whisk well. Dip the cakes (on the upper side) in the frosting. 

Decorate it with Cherries.

Cool it for around 2 hours in the refrigerator and serve.
