Cupcakes

Got this recipe from newspaper. It is really simple with little ingredients needed. Yet, it tastes nice especially serving hot. It's actually a steaming recipe, but i have added some butter in order to bake in oven.

Ingredients :-
~ 3 eggs
~ 80g caster sugar *
~ 100g butter/ margarine (melted) **
~ 150g self raising flour
~ 3 spoons soda drink (eg: F&N orange soda, or any other flavor) ***

Steps:-
~ Preheat the oven at 180C.
~ Beat the eggs and caster sugar together until the mixture turn pale and fluffy.
~ Add in the melted butter and mix well.
~ Add in the flour and beat until the mixture become smooth batter.
~ Add in the soda drink and mix well.
~ Tip the batter into paper cups (recipe enough for 12 cupcakes).
~ Bake for 15 mins or until the inserted tester come out clean.

*original recipe is 100g of caster sugar. 80g turn out to be just nice for me and my family, but those who love sweeter flavor could follow the original recipe.
** original steaming recipe is without butter.
*** the function of the soda drink is to cover the "eggy" smell. Flavor used won't affect the cake's flavor.
