The Best Homemade Cupcakes

On toast and with boiled potatoes and carrots, dill butter is fantastic. My future mother-in-law informed me of this. It becomes softer and easier to spread when oil is added.

Yield: 24 cupcakes

Ingredients

  1. 2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour, sifted
  2. 2 cups white sugar
  3. 1 tablespoon baking powder
  4. ¾ teaspoon salt
  5. 2 large eggs
  6. 1 ½ cups milk
  7. ½ cup vegetable oil
  8. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
  2. Combine sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Whisk eggs together in a second bowl for 1 to 2 minutes.
  3. Beat milk, oil, and vanilla extract together in another large bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until incorporated. Add the flour mixture in increments, making sure it mixes in well. Fold in eggs. Scoop batter into the prepared muffin cups.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Honestly if I could give it no stars I would I followed the recipe to the T and it expanded and rised then fell in as it was baking and got all over the bottom of my oven. And it was needed like baking powder.

these were really good and the ingredients were common items. a big hit with me and my sibling. I made 24 with 2 batches, and i would say the first time they were kinda dry, so the second time i added about a cup of milk, and they became softer, so next time i will add an extra cup.

This came out more like a muffin in taste and consistency. That said, both little kids (even 4 & 5 yrs olds) and adults alike thought it still tasted good with a buttercream frosting. Younger kids usually just lick frosting so them eating the cake is a win. For me, it was not my favorite in flavor, but I was happy others enjoyed it.

My batch didn’t make as much as the recipe claims but they tasted really good.

I made half of the recipie and made exactly 12 cupcakes. The flavor is great, but if you will add a very sweet topping you should reduce the quantity of sugar. I add some chocolate chips to the mix and they were yum!
