Choc Chip Cupcakes

Ingredients

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan-forced. Prepare a 12 capacity muffin pan with liners.
2. Place the butter, sugar and vanilla into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed for around 5 minutes or until pale and thick.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well in between and scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally.
4. Sift together the flour and baking powder into a bowl, then stir through the salt. Add half of the dry ingredients to the butter mixture along with half of the milk and beat slowly to combine. Add the remaining flour and milk and beat once more until a smooth batter forms.
5. Using a little flour, toss the choc chips until well coated, then fold through the batter and spoon the mixture evenly into the muffin casings. Bake for 30–35 minutes or until cooked through and golden.
6. Let them cool slightly before serving. Best enjoyed immediately, but can be frozen for later!
