Classic Vanilla Cupcakes Recipe • A Versatile Favorite | Club Foody

 

Once in a while, most of us have a sweet tooth… some more than others! To take care of this craving, there are so many scrumptious desserts to make like pies, cakes, puddings, cookies, pastries, ice cream, and so on.
 
When there are guests coming over, I take advantage of the situation by making a nice cake like Chocolate Lava Cake with Caramel, Boston Cream Pie, Cheesecake, Rum Baba (Baba au Rhum), Black Forest Cake, Charlotte, Tropical Pineapple Upside Down Cake, etc. Other times, when it’s just for the two of us, I still bake cakes but the little ones… 🧁
 
I have a few delicious cupcake recipes that I like to make; Nutella, Pistachio, Dulce de Leche, Lemon Sunshine, Red Velvet, Chocolate Orange, Maple Bacon, Cappuccino, Cookies & Cream, After 8, Margarita, and many more. There’s also this one… Classic Vanilla Cupcakes!
 
Miles away from the boxes of cupcake mix from the store, they’re light, fluffy, and bursting with vanilla flavor! These are incredibly delicious! They’re moist and very easy to make! I bake them often and the reason is they’re versatile is because you can decorate them according to the occasion🎈; dinner parties, baby showers, birthdays, or simply to feed that sweet tooth!
 
This is a pretty straightforward recipe; creamed butter and sugar together, add some flavorless oil and pure vanilla extract, mix in an egg at a time before adding a 1/3 of dry ingredients as well as a 1/3 buttermilk and process between each addition.
 
There are a few ingredients I would like to mention. Unbleached all-purpose flour is what I use in my Classic Vanilla Cupcakes and it works like a charm! Many think that cake flour is the way to go for moist and fluffy cupcakes. That’s not true. Actually, I prefer using plain versus cake and they come out lovely every time!
 
Everyone out there proclaims to have the best Classic Vanilla Cupcakes. Actually, the secret for them to stay moist longer relies on the oil… that’s all! Yes, you can beat the batter to incorporate air in it but the downside is you have to be precise in your timing otherwise if it’s overmixed, the cupcakes will come out tough.
 
Buttermilk plays a great part in the texture and moisture of the cupcakes. The acidity helps to tenderize them and as a result, they’ll be lighter. Unless, you need it for other recipes, it’s more economical to make it from scratch and just use the amount you’ll be needing. Here’s the link to make your own… Buttermilk from Scratch
 
Moist and tender, these Classic Vanilla Cupcakes are simply a scrumptious blank canvas! You can pipe on any flavored icing, sprinkle on some sanding sugar or turn them into mini strawberry shortcakes. These definitely deserve a try and you’ll see… they’ll be your go-to little guys from now on… 😉
Bon Appétit!
