Take Six Cupcakes


This is the most delicious scratch white cake recipe.  


3/4 C Crisco ( I use unsalted butter)
1 3/4 C sugar
3 eggs, 1 at a time
3C flour
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 1/4 C milk
1 tsp vanilla


Mix Crisco and sugar, add eggs, one at a time.  Add dry ingredients alternately with milk.  Add vanilla.


Bake @ 325 for 45-60 minutes


You can make a 9x13, or 2- 8" rounds, or 24 cupcakes.  





Butter Frosting


1 C unsalted butter
1/2 tsp salt
8-10 C icing sugar (depending on how stiff you want it)
3/4 C milk (add a little at a time)
2 tsp vanilla


Cream butter and salt.  Add sugar gradually alternating with milk.  Beat until smooth.  Add more milk or icing sugar if necessary.  Add vanilla.  


I had a little left over after frosting 24 of these cupcakes. 


Diane at 'Created by Diane' has a super tutorial video that shows you how easy it is to decorate cupcakes like this.  


Make these with caution.   Because I bet you can't eat just one! ;0)
