Ingredients:
| Quantity | Ingredient |
|---|---|
| 2 cups | Flour |
| 1 1/2 cups | Sugar |
| 3 1/2 tsp | Baking powder |
| 1 tsp | Salt |
| 1/2 cup | Butter |
| 1/2 cup | Margarine |
| 1 cup | Milk |
| 1 tsp | Vanilla extract |
| 3 | Eggs |
| 3/4 tsp | Cinnamon |
| 1/8 tsp | Ginger |
Instructions:
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs, sugar, butter, cinnamon, ginger, and vanilla extract using a hand mixer or stand mixer for about 2 minutes, until well combined and slightly fluffy.
-
Gradually add the flour, baking powder, salt, and milk to the mixing bowl while continuing to mix on low speed, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
-
Grease the muffin tins or line them with cupcake liners. Fill each muffin cup with the batter, being careful not to overfill as the cakes should be semi-flat.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the muffin tins for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
Decorate the cooled Cauldron Cakes with sprinkles and frosting, if desired, to add a touch of magic to your creation.
-
Serve these delightful treats at your next gathering and watch as they disappear like magic! For an extra special touch, enjoy them with a drizzle of honey for added sweetness.
