Let’s get started!

This week, i’m bringing to you, a simple vanilla cupcake recipe! This recipe can make up to 24 cupcakes.

Ingredients:

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 & 1/2 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
1 & 1/2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 & 1/4 cups milk

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line cupcake pans with liners so you don’t have to do this later.
In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, and mixing until well mixed.
Add flour mixture and milk alternately, beginning and ending with flour.
Divide batter evenly among liners, filling each about three-quarters full.
Bake about 20 minutes, rotating pan if needed.
Cool and remove cupcakes from pan, and let cool completely.

For a frosted look, i used the below store brand bought frosting and spread it on top of the cupcakes. I also had little sprinkles laying around, so i just sprinkled them on top for extra color!
