Vanilla Cupcakes

I have been making several type of vanilla cakes and cupcakes for a while now and these vanilla cupcakes are the prefect soft and fluffy ones. I came across this recipe from one of the cookery group, the admin of this group is a marvelous cook, and i adapted her recipe with minor changes. 

I always loves plain cakes in all the forms, whether it is a cake, a cupcake, muffins etc., with a hot cup of tea. And my toddler is in love with this cupcake, whenever she asks me "Mamma cake", i am baking this one for her.
