Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°F Grease a cupcake tin, or line cups with paper liners.
- Sift together flour, salt, sugar and baking powder. Cut in butter with 2 knives, or the paddle attachment of a stand mixer.
- Mix eggs, milk and vanilla. Beat into dry mixture. Fold raisins in by hand.
- Divide batter between cups. Bake in preheated oven 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes, then turn cakes out onto cooling rack until completely cooled.
Tips:
- Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the cupcakes rise evenly and prevent them from becoming too dense.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will incorporate air into the batter and help the cupcakes rise.
- Gradually add the eggs to the batter, one at a time, and beat well after each addition. This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough.
- Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full. This will give the cupcakes room to rise.
- Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will usually take about 20-25 minutes.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.
