Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, very soft
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup full-fat sour cream
1/2 cup whole milk
3 and 1/4 cups cake flour
1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, very soft
4 to 5 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
1/4 cup whole milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract (omit if you desire a stark white frosting)
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Line 2 cupcake tins with paper liners; set aside.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter, vanilla, and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, beat in the sour cream, then the milk. Turn mixer off. Add in the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a fork to lightly toss the dry ingredients together. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter, mixing just until combined. Be sure not to over mix here or you cupcakes will be dense!
  • Spoon batter into prepared cupcake tin (filling 1/2 way each - not more or they'll overflow) and bake for 18-20 minutes. Cool completely before frosting.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter on medium-speed until completely smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the confectioners sugar, no more than a 1/2 cup at a time. Once all of the sugar has been incorporated, pour in the milk and vanilla extract. Once all of the ingredients have been incorporated, increase the speed to medium-high and beat for 2 to 3 minutes, or until fluffy.
  • If the frosting appears too thin, add a little confectioners' sugar, one tablespoon at a time; if the frosting appears too thick, add a little more milk, one tablespoon at time.

KITTENCAL'S EASY ONE-BOWL VANILLA CUPCAKES



Kittencal's Easy One-Bowl Vanilla Cupcakes image

This recipe goes back over 20 years, I like the simplicity of this recipe and for a one bowl cupcake they are pretty darn good, 1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract may be used in place of the vanilla, using butter in place of shortening will alter the texture it is best to only use shortening --- if you don't have paper liners grease the tins generously or see my recipe#78579
