Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups (190 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (200 grams) sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup (115 grams) butter, softened
Wet Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) milk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Supplementary Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (85 grams) mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F (175C) and arrange cupcake liners in muffin pan.
- Whip butter and sugar in large mixing bowl until creamy and airy.
- Incorporate eggs individually, ensuring thorough blending after each addition. Mix in vanilla extract.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt in separate bowl. Gradually incorporate dry ingredients into wet mixture, alternating with milk. Blend until just combined.
- Gently fold mini chocolate chips into batter, distributing evenly.
- Distribute batter into cupcake liners, filling each approximately two-thirds full.
- Slide pan into preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes. Check doneness by inserting toothpick into cupcake center – it should emerge clean.
- Remove cupcakes from oven and allow to cool completely on wire rack before applying frosting.
Notes
- Opt for room-temperature ingredients to ensure smooth, even mixing and a consistent cupcake texture.
- Avoid overmixing the batter, which can lead to tough, dense cupcakes; mix just until ingredients are combined.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a quality gluten-free flour blend and add a pinch of xanthan gum for better structure.
- Create a fun twist by using different mix-ins like butterscotch chips, white chocolate, or crushed nuts instead of mini chocolate chips.
