Instructions

• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12‑cup muffin tin with paper liners.
• In a bowl whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
• In another bowl beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each, then stir in vanilla extract.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients alternating with milk, beginning and ending with the dry mixture, mixing just until combined.
• Divide batter evenly among the prepared liners, filling each about two‑thirds full.
• Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Let cupcakes cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
