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.

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.
