Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F and lining a cupcake tin with paper liners.
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, fill each paper liner about 3/4 full with batter.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cupcakes have cooled, you can frost them with your favorite frosting and decorate them with sprinkles, fruit, or other toppings of your choice. Enjoy!
