Cupcake Recipe:

Method

Sieve dry ingredients into a bowl.

In another bowl, cream together the margarine and sugar until light and fluffy. Add pink colouring until you have quite a depth of colour (approx ¼ to ½ teaspoon).

Add beaten eggs a little at a time, adding a small amount of the flour mixture if necessary to prevent curdling.

Beat in half the buttermilk with half the flour, then add the remaining buttermilk and flour, and mix well until combined. Add mixture into the White cupcake cases about ⅔ full.
