Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.25 cups Sour cream
- 1.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, beat the unsalted butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter, beating well after each addition until fully incorporated.
Mix in the vanilla extract, whole milk, and sour cream. Continue mixing on low speed until smooth.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until the batter is just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting or serving.
Enjoy the fluffiest cupcakes you've ever made!
