Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.25 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 24 pieces Mini cupcake liners
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 24-cup mini cupcake tin with mini cupcake liners.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Using a handheld or stand mixer, beat the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles moist crumbs.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in the vanilla extract and milk, and continue to beat on medium speed just until the batter is smooth and creamy. Do not overmix.
Using a small spoon or a piping bag, evenly distribute the batter into the lined mini cupcake tins, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving or decorating.
