You can use these directions for any type of basic cake or cupcake recipe. They are really fun to make on a rainy day. I'll be making these after supper tonight along with some much needed Marguerita Slush!! XD They go hand in hand over easter break so why not? You don't even need to ice them. They're perfect on their own.

Beat the sugar and butter together, until fluffy and light coloured


Beat in the eggs one at a time, adding a little flour each time, until you've added it all.
