    Cream Cheese Frosting:
    12 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
    1/2 cup powdered sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract

    Method:
    Cupcakes:

    Pre-heat the oven to 350F (180C).

    Line a 12 cup muffin pan, with cup cake cases.

    Crack the eggs into a cup and beat lightly with a fork.

    Place all the ingredients in a large bowl.

    Beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes, until light and creamy.

    Divide the mixture evenly between the cake cases.

    Bake for 18-20 minutes until risen and firm to touch.

    Allow to cool for a few minutes and then transfer to a wire rack.

    Allow to cool fully before frosting.
    Cream Cheese Frosting:

    Combine all ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, and beat at low speed until sugar is incorporated.
    Increase speed to medium high and beat until frosting is light and whipped, about 3 to 4 minutes.
    Pipe the frosting on to the cupcakes.
