½ tsp. salt (optional)
¾ cup sugar

RECIPE

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and mix until combined.
  • On low speed, beat in half the flour mixture, followed by milk and end with remaining flour mixture. Mix just until incorporated (do not over mix).
  • Divide batter among prepared muffin cups, filling each ⅔ full.
  • Bake for 22-24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of a cupcake comes out clean.
  • Cool cupcakes in pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
