Any cake recipe can be converted to a cupcake one. Consider cupcakes as mini cakes of whatever type of cake you are found of and using that cake's recipes, create delicious mini cakes. Cupcakes can also come in a variety of tastes. You could make several batches if you wanted - some from chocolate, some vanilla, and some with rum essence in them. The variety, especially if you decorate each kind in its own way, can be very appealing. 

Ingredients to be used :
21/4 cups flour 
3 tsp baking powder 
11/3 cups sugar 
2 eggs 
1 cup milk 
½ cup shortening 
Floor coloring 

Follow the below steps:

Step 1: Begin by preheating the oven. Add flour, baking powder, salt and sugar, milk, vanilla and shortening into the large bowl and beat for a minute. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each addition. Mix thoroughly for around 3 minutes or until a smooth consistency is achieved. 

Step 2 :Line the pan with the cupcake liners then fill 2/3 of them with the mixture. An ice-cream scoop will help you get precise amounts of mixture in the pan. For regular-size pans, use a scoop that measures 1/3 so you only put two. As they rise, they will occupy the remaining space to form a mound. Place the pan in the oven and let it bake for around 23 minutes. If you need to make more but do not have another cupcake pan, store the mixture in the refrigerator as the first batch of cupcakes cooks. When ready, remove, cool the pan for about 15 minutes then add the remaining mixture. On average, a pan makes 12 cupcakes at a time. 

Step 3: Allow the cupcakes time to cool completely before you can frost them. In the meantime, work on the cupcake frosting recipes you are going to use.
