50 g

Caster sugar

cup(s), (75g)

Natural essence

3 tsp, (rum)

White self-raising flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Lightly spray 2 x 12-hole mini muffin trays with oil.
  2. Use an electric mixer to beat the canola spread and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg until combined. Beat in the lime juice and rum essence. Stir in the flour and milk until just combined. Stir in the mint. Divide between the muffin holes and bake for 10-12 minutes or until a skewer inserted in the centres comes out clean. Turn on to a wire rack to cool.

  4. Spoon 1 teaspoon of icing onto each cupcake. Decorate with lime slices and mint leaves.
