Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175C/155C Fan) and line a 12-hole cupcake tray.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each and then the molasses and vanilla, mixing well.
- Add the buttermilk and beat to combine.
- Then, sift the dry ingredients - the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, ginger and cinnamon - into the mixing bowl of wet ingredients. Using a spatula stir well until just combined, making sure there are no unmixed patches of flour.
- Spoon into the lined cupcake tray and bake in the centre of the preheated oven for about 20 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a middle cupcake comes out clean.
- Remove from the tray and cool on a wire rack before frosting with cinnamon buttercream.
