SIMPLY PERFECT VANILLA CUPCAKES



Simply Perfect Vanilla Cupcakes image

This is my favorite recipe for homemade vanilla cupcakes. Using creamed butter, cake flour, sour cream, and egg whites, these cupcakes are soft, sweet, fluffy, and infinitely buttery.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Dessert

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 and 3/4 cups (207g) cake flour (spoon & leveled)
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
3 large egg whites, at room temperature
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
seeds scraped from 1/2 of a vanilla bean (optional)
1/2 cup (120g) full-fat sour cream at room temperature
1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk at room temperature
vanilla buttercream and sprinkles for decorating

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a second pan with 2 liners-this recipe makes about 14 cupcakes. Set aside.
  • Whisk the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together. Set aside.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add the sugar and beat on high speed for 2 minutes until creamed together. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula as needed. Add the egg whites, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean and beat on medium-high speed until smooth and combined, at least 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl as needed and then beat in the sour cream. With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients until just incorporated. With the mixer still running on low, slowly pour in the milk until combined. Do not over-mix. You may need to whisk it all by hand to make sure there are no lumps at the bottom of the bowl. The batter will be slightly thick.
  • Pour/spoon the batter into the liners-fill only 2/3 full to avoid spilling over the sides. Bake for 19-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. For around 30-36 mini cupcakes, bake for about 11-13 minutes, same oven temperature. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
  • Frost cooled cupcakes with vanilla buttercream. You can swipe the frosting on with an icing knife or use a piping tip such as Wilton 1M. Leftover cupcakes keep well covered tightly in the refrigerator for 3 days.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling.
  • Follow the Recipe Carefully: Baking is a precise science, so it's important to follow the recipe exactly as it's written. Don't substitute ingredients or change the measurements unless you know what you're doing.
  • Measure Ingredients Accurately: Using the correct measurements is essential for successful baking. Invest in a good set of measuring cups and spoons, and make sure you're measuring ingredients correctly.
  • Cream Butter and Sugar Thoroughly: This step is important for creating a light and fluffy batter. Make sure you cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy, and there are no lumps of butter remaining.
  • Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in tough, dense cupcakes. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined, then stop.
  • Fill Cupcake Liners Properly: Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full. This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing and making a mess in your oven.
  • Bake Cupcakes at the Right Temperature: The temperature of your oven can affect the texture and flavor of your cupcakes. Make sure you preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking.
  • Don't Overbake the Cupcakes: Overbaking the cupcakes can make them dry and crumbly. Bake the cupcakes for the amount of time specified in the recipe, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Baking cupcakes is a fun and rewarding experience. By following these tips, you can create delicious and beautiful cupcakes that will impress your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
