Vanilla Cupcake

These vanilla cupcakes combine self-raising flour, caster sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla extract to create a tender and moist cake. The baking soda helps with leavening alongside the self-raising flour. The batter is scooped into cupcake cases and baked until golden brown, resulting in classic individual-sized cakes ideal for decorating and serving at gatherings or as simple sweet treats.
