directions
-
Conecakes:
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and half the sugar.
- In another bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Sprinkle with the remaining sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
- Make a well in the dry ingredients and add the egg yolks, oil, vanilla and milk. Mix well with an electric mixer. Using a spatula, fold in the beaten egg whites.
- Pour the batter into the cones, filling to the rim. Arrange the cones on a baking sheet. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
- Let cool before icing.
-
Icing:
- In a bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the butter, icing sugar, milk and vanilla until creamy. Mix 1/3 of the icing with cocoa powder until chocolate-coloured, 1/3 with red food colouring until strawberry-coloured and leave 1/3 white (vanilla coloured). Ice the cupcakes.

These won't win any taste competitions, but it didn't matter. The kids thought they were delicious and had a great time. We made a batch and brought them with us visiting - it gave the kids something to do. We slapped on some icing and they got to choose from the myriad of sprinkles available. A huge huge huge HIT!
