Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1.5 tsp Baking Powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
Wet Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 0.5 cup Milk
Chocolate Chips
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven – Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cupcakes bake evenly and rise to perfection.
- Prepare the Muffin Tin – Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. This not only adds a nice touch but also makes for easy cleanup when the cupcakes are done.
- Mix Dry Ingredients – In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. This step helps to distribute the leavening agent evenly throughout the flour.
- Cream Butter and Sugar – In a separate bowl, cream the unsalted butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This process incorporates air, leading to a lighter cupcake.
- Add Eggs and Vanilla – Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Make sure everything is well combined for a smooth batter.
- Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until just combined to avoid overmixing.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips – Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Fill Muffin Tin – Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about two-thirds full for optimal rising.
- Bake – Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Enjoy the heavenly aroma wafting through your kitchen!
- Cool and Serve – Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, they are ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for a smoother batter.
- Don’t Overmix: Mix just until combined to keep the cupcakes light and airy.
- Check for Doneness: Use a toothpick to check if they are done; it should come out clean or with a few crumbs.
- Let Them Cool: Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting to prevent melting.
- Store Properly: Keep them in an airtight container to maintain freshness for longer.
