Yield Makes 29

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups sifted all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 1/4 cups packed light-brown sugar
4 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup buttermilk
Brown-Butter Glaze

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line standard muffin tins with paper liners. Whisk dry ingredients in a large bowl. Cream butter and sugar with a mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition.
  • Reduce speed to low. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture in 3 additions, alternating with buttermilk and ending with dry. Scrape sides of bowl. Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
  • Bake cupcakes until testers inserted into centers come out clean, 25 minutes. Let cool in tins on wire racks. (Unglazed cupcakes will keep, covered, for up to 3 days.) Set racks with cupcakes over parchment-lined baking sheets. Spoon glaze over tops, and let stand until set. Serve glazed cupcakes immediately.

These cupcakes are the worst cupcakes I've ever had. I threw them all away.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but these cupcakes were a disaster. I wouldn't recommend this recipe to anyone.

These cupcakes are a waste of time and ingredients. They didn't turn out at all.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cupcakes didn't turn out as good as the picture. They were a bit flat and the glaze was too runny.

These cupcakes are a bit dry, but the glaze helps to make them more moist.

The glaze on these cupcakes is a bit too thick for my taste, but the cupcakes themselves are delicious.

These cupcakes are the perfect size for a party or potluck. They're not too big and they're not too small.

The glaze on these cupcakes is amazing! It's so smooth and creamy, and it really complements the flavor of the cupcakes.
