Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • ½ tablespoon baking powder
  • ½ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ tablespoon vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla essence essence

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl - Measure flour, add baking powder. Whisk well for even mixing.
  • In another mixing bowl - add milk, vinegar. Mix it well.
  • In another mixing bowl - add butter and sugar. Using a hand mixer whisk well until creamy.
  • Add vanilla essence, whisk again.
  • Now alternatively add little flour then milk. Alternate and add. Add then whisk alternatively.
  • The batter will be smooth and creamy. Using a ice cream scooper scoop out the batter.
  • Add it to the muffin liners till ¾th. Bake in preheated oven at 180 deg C for 20 minutes.
  • Cool down and then store Vanilla Cup Cake.

Notes

  • Creaming – I always make sure butter and sugar are creamed together until light and fluffy. 
  • Alternate mixing – I add flour and milk alternately, start with flour then milk then flour. This keeps the batter smooth and prevents lumpy texture.
  • Don't overmix – Once you add flour, I just mix until combined. Overmixing can make cupcake tough and dense.
  • Fill muffin liner – I usually fill liner till three quarter full. If you fill too much, batter overflows and if too little, cupcakes come out small.
  • Check doneness – I use a toothpick and insert in the middle. If it comes out clean its done or keep for a minute or two or util the toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool properly – I let the cupcake cool in pan for 5 minutes then remove. Let them cool on rack before storing so they don't get soggy.
