Heart-Shaped Cupcake

Ingredients:
-225g self-raising flour
-220g caster sugar
-125g unsalted butter, softened, chopped
-2 tsp vanilla extract
-1 orange, zested
-2 eggs
-2 tbs milk

1. Preheat oven to 180 degree Celsius. Line a 12 hole muffin pan with 12 paper cases.
2. Using an electric mixer, beat flout, sugar, butter, vanilla, orange zest, eggs and milk on low speed until combined, increase speed to medium-high and beat for a further 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.
3. Divide batter among paper cases and bake for 20 mins or until golden and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Leave for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.


Note : I use the dough to make the heart-shape cupcake, just need to add chocolate (or any other flavor) frosting and some strawberries and blueberries (can be any type of fruits), while the remaining batter can be used as 'normal' shaped cupcake.

Serves : 12 (6 if you use the batter to make the heart-shaped cupcake)
