Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
- Warm 3/4 cup milk in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly to make sure it does not burn, until piping hot but not boiling. Add chai tea bags; set aside and steep for 10 minutes.
- Beat sugar and butter together in a medium bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Beat eggs in 1 at a time. Stir in vanilla extract.

CHAI LATTE CUPCAKES (FROM BETTY CROCKER)
From the Betty Crocker website. I LOVE these cupcakes. A nice grown-up taste and very simple to make using a cake mix. I like 'Zaar "Recipe #19353" for the vanilla frosting but you can use your own or pre-purchased frosting.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use freshly ground spices for the chai tea blend.
- If you don't have any chai tea bags, you can make your own by combining 1 teaspoon each of ground cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and cloves in a cheesecloth sachet.
- Let the chai tea steep for at least 5 minutes to allow the flavors to fully develop.
- For a richer frosting, use full-fat cream cheese.
- If you don't have any cupcake liners, you can grease and flour your muffin tins instead.
- Be sure to let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them.
Conclusion:
These chai latte cupcakes are the perfect treat for any occasion. They're moist and flavorful, with a delicious chai tea frosting. Whether you're a fan of chai lattes or just looking for a new cupcake recipe to try, these cupcakes are sure to please.
