Cupcakes
- 8 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Topping Ideas
- Whipped cream
- Fresh berries
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a muffin tray with 10 paper liners.
Cream together the butter, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl. Add the eggs and beat until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt, and beat until combined, being careful not to over-mix.
Divide the batter between the 10 lined muffin wells. Bake until the cupcakes are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Let the cupcakes cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
If desired, once they’re cool top each cupcake with whipped cream and a few fresh berries.
