Instructions
- To make the sponges, add the soften butter to a large bowl together with the sugar.
- Use a hand mixer to cream them together until smooth.
- Add the eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition.
- Sift in the flour, add the milk, baking powder and vanilla extract and mix to incorporate.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit).
- Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases and divide the batter evenly.
- Bake for 20 minutes until golden and a skewer inserted in the middle of the sponges comes out clean.
- Leave the sponges to cool down completely in their cases.
- Once they have cooled down, peel the paper cases off, cut each cupcake in half horizontally, spread jam on one side, and top with whipped cream - I added the cream to a piping bag fitted with a star nozzle, but it can also be done with a spoon if it's easier.
- Dust the cupcakes with icing sugar.
