- Preheat your oven to 180 C / Gas 4. Line a muffin tin with paper cases.
- Beat the butter and sugar together till pale and creamy. Lightly whisk the eggs together with the vanilla, then add gradually to the butter mixture, beating well.
- Combine the flour, bicarb and baking powder in a separate bowl. Add to the butter mixture and fold together gently, adding milk only as needed to achieve a smooth mixture that drops easily from your spoon. Spoon the cupcake mixture into the prepared cases, about half full.

- Now that it has cooled - Eat, Share, ENJOY!
