HOMEMADE VANILLA CUPCAKES

 This recipe for vanilla homemade cupcakes makes the perfect birthday cupcake. Made with simple, easy to find ingredients, these cupcakes turn out perfect every time.

They're incredibly moist, tender, and soft - the perfect homemade cupcake recipe. And after many reader requests, I've even made this recipe into a sheet cake - vanilla sheet cake (with directions for 3 pan sizes!).



Ingredients

Yellow Cupcakes

1 ½ cups cake flour

1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter room temperature

1 cup granulated sugar

2 large eggs room temperature

½ cup milk room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

American Buttercream Frosting

4 cups confectioner's sugar

1 cup unsalted butter room temperature

3-4 tablespoons heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

Yellow Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a cupcake pan with liners, set aside.

In a bowl, sift or whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, add butter and sugar. Beat until creamed and fluffy.

Add eggs and vanilla extract. Mix until incorporated and smooth.

Add half of your dry ingredients to butter mixture. Stir until just combined. Add half of milk, again stirring until just combined. Repeat once more, adding remaining dry ingredients, and remaining milk, stirring until just incorporated.

Portion batter between 15 cupcake liners, filling about halfway full. Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. 

Remove pan from oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring cupcakes to a wire rack to finish cooling.

American Buttercream Frosting

In a large bowl, add room temperature butter and beat until creamy, about 1 minute.

Add confectioner's sugar and slowly mix until ingredients are fully combined. Then, whip at high speed for 2-3 minutes, or until light and fluffy.

Add vanilla extract and heavy cream, then whip until fluffy, another 1 to 2 minutes.

Pipe or spread frosting with a knife onto cupcakes and serve.
