Strawberry shortcake Cakes

this reminds me of those little spongecake things you buy in the produce section for stawberry shortcake

1/2 cup butter
1 cup
icing sugar
4
eggs
1 teaspoon
vanilla
1 cup
cornstarch
1 1/4 teaspoons
baking powder

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 12-muffin pan.
In a large bowl cream butter and sugar, using electric mixer.
Add the eggs and vanilla. Beat until light and fluffy.
In a small bowl mix the cornstarch and baking powder together and add slowly to the creamed mixture. (If added too quickly, it will fly about the kitchen.).
Mix until well blended.
Fill the greased muffin tins half full.
Bake for 15 minutes. (Test with a toothpick, after 15 minutes, even if the top looks shiny).
Remove from the pan while still warm. (They will look like little cupcakes.But trust me they will taste just like little shortcakes).
Serve topped with strawberries, and whipped cream.
