Ingredients:
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
2 eggs |
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract |
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
2 1/2 cups flour |
1 1/4 cups milk |
amy sedaris's vanilla buttercream frosting |
Directions:
1. Turn oven on to 375 degrees F.
2. Put butter in mixer and beat at medium speed until somewhat smooth. Pour in sugar and beat well. Add 2 eggs. I like to crack the eggs on the side of the bowl while it is moving, which can be really stupid. I like to take chances. Yes, I have had to throw away my batter because I lost eggshells in the mix. Yes, it was a waste of food and yes, I know how expensive butter is, but what can I say? I'm a daredevil. Mix well. Add: vanilla, baking powder, salt, flour, and milk. Beat until it looks like it is supposed to and pour into individual baking cups, until they are about 2/3 full. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Should produce 24 cupcakes; I get 18 because I'm doing something wrong, although my cupcakes were voted second best in the city by New York Magazine.
3. Frost with Amy Sedaris's Vanilla Buttercream Frosting.
