Answer 1

Use your favorite 'from scratch' cake recipe and pour it into cupcake holders.

If you don't have a favorite, here's a standard cake from scratch that my mom used all the time.

Cream together:
3/4 Cup Butter
1 1/2 Cup plus 2 Tablespoon sugar

Add 1 @ a time and beat well:
4 egg yolks

Sift together and add alternating with below:
1/2 teaspoons Salt
2 3/4 Cup Flour
3 teaspoons Baking Powder

Add alternating with above:
1 1/4 C Milk
2 teaspoons of your favorite flavoring (mom used vanilla, butter or pineapple)

Stir or fold in:
4 beaten egg whites

Bake at 375 degrees for 30-45 minutes. For cupcakes check with a toothpick at about 20 minutes to see if they are done. If the toothpick comes out clean, they are finished.

For frosting try this:

Cream together:
2-4 Tablespoons of Crisco, or more if you want more frosting.
Work in 1-2 Cups of Powdered sugar (or until it tastes as sweet as you like it.)
Add just a little milk or water for ease of mixing and spreading. (Not more than a couple of tablespoons. Be careful not to get too much.)
Flavoring (optional--you can add chocolate, chocolate chips, vanilla, etc.)
Food color--also optional.
