Colourful Cupcakes

"These are fun to make and they taste good too! I like using plain white cupcake liners so you can see the colours through them. The end result looks complicated but it is really quite easy and quick."

directions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and place liners in muffin pans.
  • Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in eggs.
  • Stir in flour and baking powder.
  • Separate the batter into four bowls. Tint each one a different colour, (I use red/pink, blue, yellow and then mix blue and yellow to make green).
  • Put a bit from each bowl into the paper liners, being careful not to mix them and make muddy colours. Use a different spoon for each colour. Fill the liners about 3/4 full. After, use a toothpick to stir the batters slightly. You do not want to create swirls; just get the air bubbles out.
  • Bake for 17 minutes and allow to sit in pan for a minute or two after they come out. Transfer to a cooling rack to prevent the bottoms from becoming soggy.
  • Apply icing if desired. You can use the same technique and have multicoloured icing.
