Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cups granulated sugar
- 2 units large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups sour cream
- 0.25 cups whole milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream together the softened butter and sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 4
Add the eggs one at a time to the butter mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 5
Reduce the mixer speed to low and alternately add the dry ingredients and wet ingredients (sour cream and milk), beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Step 6
Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Once cooled, frost as desired and enjoy your delicious sour cream cupcakes!
