These are the cutest little treats that I made for my daughter’s 11 month birthday (yep! we are doing that). They are beautiful, easy to make and scrumptious.
Ingredients:
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¾ cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2/3 cup cold milk
Tips:
- For best results and easy maneuvering of the ingredients use butter and eggs at room temperature.
- Duration of baking may change with different ovens, so let the cupcakes cook for 6 minutes straight and from then on check every 1 minute so that cupcakes don’t burn.
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
2. Line the cupcake tray with the cupcake liner or spray it with cooking spray.
3. Cream butter and sugar in a big glass bowl.
4. Add eggs one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
5.Sift flour, baking powder and salt into the bowl and mix it with the butter mixture until it is smooth.
6.Gently fold in the cold milk until it’s a homogenous mixture.
7.Pour the batter in the tray.
8.Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, around 7-8 mins.
9.Let the cupcakes cool in the tray, then serve it with some flavored buttercream.
