Choc Chip Cupcakes Recipe (Book: The Cupcake; Publisher: Love Food)
Makes 12

INGREDIENTS 
100g self-raising flour
100g butter, softened, or soft margarine
100g caster sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
100g plain chocolate chips

METHOD
Preheat oven to 190C degrees (although I find 175C degrees in a gas oven enough - test on one cupcake!). Place 12 paper cases in a cupcake tray. Sift flour in a large bowl. Add butter, caster sugar and eggs and, using an electric mixer, beat together until smooth. Fold in chocolate chips. Spoon the mixture into paper cases. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes (I have found 16-18 minutes to be sufficient), or until risen, golden and firm to touch. Transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.
