Basic Vanilla Cupcake Recipe

I call these basic cupcakes because with them, you can play around with all types of decoration topping to make different themed cupcakes, such as the adorable Easter Nest Cupcakes. Another reason is that they are really easy – I was successful on my first attempt even though I had only one successful baking attempt (and many disastrous attempts) prior to this.

Not only is the recipe easy, it also has minimal ingredients. If you are a total noob in baking just like me, I think this is the perfect cupcake recipe to use. As with all cupcakes (as opposed to muffins), they usually need some kind of frosting or fondue on top to make it more complete. However, they taste good on their own too and I am equally happy to enjoy them plain.

  9. Hi ! thanks so much and God bless u for your website! I’ve picked up cooking again as a result of your easy & great recipes!

    i have a question – i m a new cook and just acquired an oven but clueless about using it!

    for your lasagne and the vanilla cupcakes – when u say preheat and bake – r u referring to convection function? Sorry I am so duh about it and appreciate your reply :D Ty!

  10. Hi Samantha, thank you for your kind words, you made me blush :halo:

    Yours is a microwave convection oven? If so, yes it’s the convection function and I believe you have the option of preheating the oven to the desired temperature before baking. Hope this helps.
