This cupcakes is made using simple ingredients available in the kitchen. My family and friends love this cupcakes. It can be eaten with or without icing.
I will be using this basic cupcake recipe for various icings, which will be posted time to time.

100gm Amul Butter (See Note at the bottom)
100gm sugar
2 eggs
2 tbsp warm milk
Sliced Almond, candied strawberries, cherries (Opt)

To check if cupcake is ready:-
- Insert the tooth pick. If it come out clean, cupcake is ready
- Touch the cupcake, if it springs back it is ready.
NOTE:-
Amul butter is brand from India. It has salt in it. It gives a nice taste to the cupcakes.But not to worry if it is not available. Using plain butter + 2 pinch of salt will give the same result.
