8.Fill cake batter into cupcake liner till 90% full. Tap the pan on countertop to remove air bubbles .

9.Bake at preheated oven at 120C ( for my oven, second rack from bottom) for 30mins, then increase temp to 150C, bake for another 10mins. Off the oven and let the cupcakes sit inside the oven for another 5mins before removed . Adjust your oven temp and timing as every oven is different.
