Vanilla cupcake recipe

12 servings

Ingredients
1 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp baking powder
2 large eggs

Tips:
1) For perfectly domed cakes, beat eggs and sugar until lemon yellow and frothy
2) Melt butter and cool
3) Combine all wet ingredients before adding dry ingredients
4) Gently fold in flour

To make:
1. Pour cooled butter into large mixing bowl. Add egg mixture and combine until well mixed- about 2 minutes
2. Add milk. Stir
3. Add vanilla, salt, baking powder
4. Gently fold in flour until incorporated
5. Let stand for 5 minutes
6. Pour batter into greased cupcake pans and bake in 350 degree oven for 10 minutes.
7. Cool for 5-7 minutes before gently prising cupcakes from pan with a slim knife (or you can just flip the pan upside down like I do)

Enjoy.

I'm still trying to develop a failsafe frosting recipe for these, so as usual, please bear with me...I won't let you down!
