Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Add the melted butter, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a whisk or spatula until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full to prevent overflowing during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Frost and decorate the cupcakes as desired, or enjoy them plain for a simple, sweet treat.
