| Classic Vanilla Cupcakes Ingredients. | |
| 125 g (1/2 cup – 4 oz + a little less than a tbsp) | unsalted butter, (room temperature) |
| 175 g (7/8 cup – 6 oz) | white sugar |
| 2 tsp | vanilla extract |
| seeds from 1 | vanilla bean, alternative |
| 3 large | eggs, (room temperature) |
| 225 g (1 5/8 cup – 8 oz) | all-purpose flour |
| 1 1/2 tsp | baking powder |
| 1/4 tsp | salt |
| 80 ml (1/3 cup) | whipping cream, (room temperature) |
Muffin tray
12 cupcake paper cases
Preheat oven to 170 C (325F) No fan used.
Note: When making the cupcake batter, only use low/medium speed on your mixer. I like to use my handheld mixer, as this gives me a better feeling with the batter. It is important that you don’t over beat the batter.
Direction.
In a bowl, whisk well together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, cream the butter & sugar until pale and well combined (If you are using vanilla seeds, then add this before creaming the butter & sugar)
Add 1 egg at a time. Mix in between and remember to scrape down the sides before adding a new egg.
Add the dry mixture, along with the cream and vanilla extract. Mix just until incorporated. Alternative use a spatula for this part.
Take your muffin tray with the cupcake paper cases and fill them with the cupcake batter.
-If you want a “flat” cupcake? You should only fill 1 heaped tablespoon per cupcake.
-If you want a more “domed” cupcake? You should fill the paper cases 3/4 full.
Place the muffin tray in the middle of the oven and bake the cupcakes for 30-35 minutes or until a tester comes out clean and they are light golden on the top.
Note: If some of the cupcakes should have a little “open crack” on the top. Gently press it down with the back of a spoon, the minute after you have taken the cupcakes out of the oven.
Transfer the baked cupcakes to a cooling rack and let them cool completely before decorating them with frosting.
TIP! You can use other types of flavor, like almond instead of vanill
