SAKG

Over the past two weeks, the Foundation and 1/2 have been in the kitchen, we decided to make cupcakes as a treat.

The kids had a great time and the recipe is really easy to follow.

Over the next coming weeks with all kids on site hopefully, we can get out into the garden as well.

4 Method Steps

• Step 1

Preheat oven to 200C or 180C fan-forced. Grease a 12 x 1/3-cup capacity muffin pan. Alternatively, line holes with paper cases. Combine flour and caster sugar in a bowl. Make a well in the centre.

• Step 2

Add milk, butter, eggs and vanilla to the flour mixture. Using a large metal spoon, stir gently to combine.

• Step 3

Spoon mixture into prepared muffin pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand in pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
