Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour sifted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 0.5 cup milk at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Add the vanilla extract followed by the flour mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Notes

To keep your cupcakes moist, store them in an airtight container after they've cooled completely.
