Vanilla Cupcakes

I haven't tried this out yet, this is for next time. This is an adaptation of the Boston Cake recipe for cupcakes. Cupcakes need to be a little firmer, and bake into a dome, not a flat surface. So this version switches to all purpose flour and does not beat egg whites separately.

Ingredients

  • 6 tbs butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (8 oz) cake flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2/3 cup millk

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 350 °F. Line a 12-mold cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
  2. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cream butter and sugar together until light. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  4. Add the flour mixture and milk alternately in three stages. Beat until smooth.
  5. Divide evenly in the cupcake liners. Bake 20 - 25 minutes.
  6. Cool in pan.
