Vanilla-buttercream frosted cupcakes step by step
Preheat oven. I set my oven at 160 degrees Celsius. Line up cupcake tin with cupcake holders..
In a bowl beat margarine until smooth. It should be creamy and light..
Add sugar to the margarine. Mix well till fully incorporated..
Now add the eggs and essence and mix well.
The flour will need to have been sifted together with the baking powder in a separate bowl. Now add in the flour in three batches alternating with maziwa mala. Sometimes I can use plain milk or sour cream. Ensure to fold in the flour using a spatula and that the flour is fully mixed into the wet ingredients..
Now spoon the mixture into the cupcake holders to about 2/3 full and bake for 25 minutes..
Buttercream frosting: here mix all the ingredients together using a hand mixer for a good smooth mix. Do this for about 5 minutes..
Colour buttercream as desired. Use piping bags and assorted icing nozzle tips for decorations..
Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until fully incorporated. American vanilla buttercream is incredibly simple and much easier than, say, Swiss meringue buttercream. Here's how to make it: Beat butter until creamy. In medium bowl, mix powdered sugar and butter with spoon or electric mixer on low speed. While there are many frosting recipes that you can mix by hand, the best buttercream frostings require lots of air to be incorporated into the butter.
