Instructions

  1. For the cupcakes, mix all the dry ingredients in a large bowl then add the eggs, vanilla extract, butter, and milk and mix with a whisk until you get a homogeneous dough.

  3. Bake in the oven at 180 °C (356 °F).

Frosting

  1. Mix all the ingredients in a saucepan with a whisk and cook over low heat, stirring constantly to avoid sticking until the frosting thickens.
