Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Classic Vanilla Cupcakes.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and prepare a standard muffin tin with 12 paper cupcake liners.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt, then set this dry blend aside.
Step 3
In a small saucepan, gently warm the butter and milk over low heat until the butter melts into a silky mixture.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, grab your electric mixer and beat together sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until the mixture thickens and takes on a lighter hue.
Step 5
Gradually fold in the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed just until combined.
Step 6
Slowly drizzle in the warm milk mixture, continuing to mix until everything is harmoniously blended—remember, overmixing is not your friend.
Step 7
Carefully distribute the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling them just right.
Step 8
Slide the tin into your preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake emerges clean.
Step 9
Once baked to perfection, let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy the delightful aroma as they cool, and get ready to savor your delicious creations!.
