Ingredients:
Butter - 1/2 cup or 1 stick
Granulated sugar - 1 cup
Eggs - 2
Vanilla essence - 2 tsp
All purpose flour - 1 1/3 cup
Baking powder - 2 tsp
Salt - 1/8tsp
Milk - 1/3 cup
Method:
Preheat oven to 350F
Line a 12 cup muffin tin with cupcake liners or grease well with butter.
Combine the 3 dry ing. except sugar and sift them to remove lumps.
In a mixing bowl, combine butter and sugar using a stand mixer/hand mixer until creamy. Then add the eggs and vanilla essence. Whisk well. It may look curdled but that's ok. Turn of the mixer and add the dry ing. Turn the mixer back on on low speed. Gradually pour milk. Turn off once the mixture comes together. The batter is slightly thick.
Scoop and fill the liners 3/4 th the way up.
Bake for 20- 25 mins or until done.
I added a spoon of nutella on top of the batter and gave it a swirl for extra flavor.
The plain cupcakes don't crack on top. So no need to cover on top with frosting!
Notes:
- Butter and eggs should be at room temp.
- After adding milk, turn of the mixer quickly once combined. If the batter is over mixed, it will become doughy.
