Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.75 cups Mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, use a handheld or stand mixer to cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the wet mixture in three additions, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined; do not overmix.
Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips using a spatula.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 cupcake liners, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake 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 allow them to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve as is or top with your favorite vanilla frosting for an extra treat.
