LEMON / CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES

Ingredients
200 gms butter ( 1 cup)
125 gm (1/2cup + 1 tbsp) sugar
125 gms (3/4 cup) flour
2 eggs
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp soda bi carb.
1 tsp lemon essence
2 tbsp milk
For Chocolate cupcakes:
75 gms flour and55 gms cocoa powder (1/2 cup flour & ¼ cup cocoa)
1 tsp vanilla essence

Method
Put everything in the food processor in the order mentioned.  Add 2 tbsp milk and mix again.  The mixture will be soft and sticky.  Fill up the paper cups ½ full.  Surprisingly this amount will fill 12 paper cups.
Bake for about 15-20 mins in a preheated oven at 200oC or 400oF.
You can have them plain – they are just as delicious. You could make 1-2 doz and put them in the fridge, and when required, a 20 sec. in the microwave makes them taste as good as new!!
If you want to ice the cakes, cool them before to do so.
