Graduation Cupcakes
Vanilla cupcakes that are too delicious not to make (or eat)!
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups self-rising flour

  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 Cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature  

  • 1 Cup milk

  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps
  • Preheat oven to 350F.

  • Line 2 (1/2 cup-12 capacity) muffin tins with cupcake papers.

  • In a small bowl, combine the flours. Set aside.

  • In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth. Add the sugar gradually and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes.

  • Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.

  • Add the dry ingredients in 3 parts, alternating with the milk and vanilla. With each addition, beat until the ingredients are incorporated but do not over beat.

  • Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the batter in the bowl to make sure the ingredients are well blended.

  • Carefully spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling them about 3/4 full.

  • Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.

  • Cool the cupcakes in tins for 15 minutes.

  • Remove from the tins and cool completely on a wire rack before icing
