Notes

  • *Sift cake mix before adding to reduce clumps, cutting back on stirring and ensuring you have the most moist cupcakes ever!
  • **Eggs: You can also use whole eggs, the batter will be a little more yellow.
  • ***You can use regular vanilla extract, but it will tint the batter brown. You can also omit the vanilla.
