It’s annoying to have a recipe that makes 14-18 cupcakes when tins come in 12. My fault, I overfilled the tins because I didn’t want to waste too much batter and didn’t have time to make a second batch. The cupcakes tasted pretty good though. I served it with fresh strawberry frosting.
Followed the recipe as is but cut down the sugar by almost half. Very fluffy and moist, especially when they came fresh out of the oven. Very nice cup cakes. Oven time under 20 minutes as per recipe.
I doubled the recipe and then just followed all the directions and they came out wonderful. The baking time was a little off. I baked them for 25ish minutes and they turned out great.
This is the best recipe I have found to make mini cupcakes, I did the recipe as it comes, nothing added or taken… the time for mini cupcakes is 17min and they came out perfect.
these cupcakes were easy to make but the baking time is wrong and they sink in the middle! the taste was very good. How can I get them to rise properly?
I will try to make them again.
I took the advise of
other reviewers an d
increased the
butter, also added a
couple of
tablespoons of
passion fruit puree.
they came out all
right, but not
great. I made them
mini size and they
still took over 30
min to bake.
After spending a considerable amount of time searching for a white cupcake recipe, this one definitely is the best recipe I found. After reading the other reviews, I used 1 stick of butter and about a 1/4 cup of vegetable oil when I added the eggs. The cupcakes wound out coming moist, but lacking a little flavor, which may be might fault for cutting out a 1/4 cup of the sugar! Because of their easiness and general results, I would definitely make them again.
Added a little more butter and about 150 grams less sugar. Stuck a sweetened cherry or two in each cup before baking. Definitely going to save this recipe.
Based on the reviews below, I used 1
stick of butter. This is a no-frills,
easy to make recipe which I found
perfect for my needs (kids birthday
party at school). Be careful not to
over-bake, my cupcakes were done at 15
minutes and stayed nice and white.
Perfect cupcake for a kids birthday
party. I followed the recipe exactly.
Many said it took forever to cook.
However, when I checked after 20
minutes – they were perfect.
This was a great and easy recipe to
follow. The cupcakes came out moist and
light. Per the prior reviews, I added
an additional 1/3 cup of butter for a
total of 1 cup of butter and that did
the trick.
Just made these for my four year old’s birthday party– they were easy to make, delicious, and all the moms asked for the recipe.
they must have changed this recipe because all the old reviews say they were too dry. I made exactly as stated and they were runny and gummy after 20+ minutes, just like the most recent reviewer. Don’t waste your ingredients… find another recipe. 🙁
I like this recipe
over all. The baking
time is incorrect as
others have stated.
but having been
for warned, We
extended the time
and they turned out
well. I added 3
tablespoons of fresh
passion fruit puree
to the batter, and
instead of frosting
them though we
filled them with
passion fruit curd.
They turned out
excellent.
While very tasty, I have a few issues with this recipe, mainly that the cooking time was completely inaccurate. I ruined the first batch by trusting the 20 mins cooking time and letting them cool before I checked them with a toothpick. The second batch has been cooking for about 30 mins, and they are still runny. This is not an issue with my stove: it is brand new/state of the art.
