1 cup soft margarine
generous 1 1/8 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 5/8 cups self-rising white flour
Topping
3/4 cup butter, softened
3 cups confectioners' sugar
cake decorating sprinkles
*Preheat the oven to 350. Put 24 paper baking cases in a muffin pan.
*Put the margarine, sugar, eggs, and flour in a large bowl and, using an electric hand whisk, beat together until just smooth. Spoon the batter into the paper cases.
*Bake the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until well risen, golden brown, and firm to the touch. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.
*To make the frosting, put the butter in a bowl and beat until fluffy. Sift in the confectioners' sugar and beat together until smooth and creamy.
*When the cupcakes are cold, spread the frosting on top of each cupcake, then decorate to your choice and, if desired, place a candle in the top of each.
