Vanilla cupcakes

Nice, easy, plain cupcakes that taste great and are lots of fun! (and as with any plain cake, can be modified by adding other yummy things to the recipe if you want).

1 1/4 cups self raising flour
1/4 cup plain flour
1/2 teaspoon bi carb soda

1/2 cup caster sugar
1/2 cup canola margarine (or any all vegetable margarine)
75 ml orange juice
75 ml water
1/2 teaspoon vanilla essence
1/4 teaspoon butter essence (if you don't have it just substitute it for vanilla)

Preheat oven to 160'C.
Cream sugar and margarine until smooth.

Add sifted flour, self raising flour and bi card soda to creamed sugar and margarine.
Mix well.
Add the orange juice, water and vanilla and butter essences and mix well.
Spoon evenly into 12 cake cases.
Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until cakes spring back when poked.
Leave to cool and then ice!
