MANGO CUPCAKES

Mango is the king of fruits and I just love mangoes. many versatile desserts can be made using mangoes. I can eat these in any form. I know mangoes are universal favorite fruit.  After successful attempt to my mango cake , thought to try a cup cake version. This cupcake is same as mango cake i have shared in various groups. i am not including the cake recipe in my blog because the recipe is same. This is my tried and tested version of mango cupcakes and a no fail recipe. I am sure this is going to be a big hit.

But this year i.e on 2016 i am making little changes in this recipe and adding new photos. The colour of cuppies comes only for brown sugar i have used in this recipe. but you can take castor sugar.
