Cream Cheese Cup Cakes


This is my favourite recipe and because I bake often, it is also your favourite!!

Ingredients

250 gm margarine softened

250 gm cream cheese softened

2 cups sugar

5 eggs

2 cups plain flour

2 t spn baking powder

1/2 t spn baking soda

1 t spn vanilla essence


Preheat oven at 375 degrees

In a bowl beat the cream cheese and the sugar together. Then add the rest of the ingredients and beat well!!!

( mama never ever sift the flour with the baking powder because mama doesn't own a sieve!! Most recipes ask you to sift the flour and baking powder three times to ensure even distribution of the raising agent!! Well you have eaten all the cookies and cakes mama baked.. they are edible..right??)


Line the muffin pan with paper cups.

Fill the paper cups 1/2 full.

Bake for 15 minutes

Take it off from the oven and cool on a wire rack.

Makes 30 cup cakes.

Sarah, did you ever make your favourite egg bhajji (of your med college canteen) for Yaya?

hey sarahkutty --

I wish you measured in spoons (you know -- 2 table spoon, 1 teaspoon etc) instead of grams.

Hmm..
