Homemade Two Tone Cupcakes
- 8 ounces, weight Cake Flour, Sifted
- 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- 7 ounces, weight Butter
- 7 ounces, weight Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 4 whole Eggs
- 1 drop Food Colouring Pink
- 1 drop Food Colouring -green
- Sift the flour and baking powder three times into a small bowl. Set aside.
- Using an electric hand mixer beat the butter, sugar and vanilla together in a medium bowl. Beat until white and creamy. Add eggs one at a time and stir to combine. Next add flour mixture. Mix until combined but do not over mix.
- Divide the batter into two equal portions. Add food coloring to each portion (1 drop in one, 1 drop in the other). Mix well using a rubber spatula.
- Now line a cupcake tin or muffin tin with paper cups (recipe makes 24). Pour batter into cups, layering the two colors. First place a little of the pink batter and top with a little of the green batter. You can do this a couple times if you like. Fill cups to about 2/3 full. Don't over fill.
- Bake at 180 c degrees for about 25 minutes. Cupcakes are ready when the top springs back when you touch it with your finger.
- Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let cool. Serve and enjoy.
