Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup butter softened, unsalted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 egg large
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 1 ¾ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup buttermilk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake tin with paper wrappers. Set aside.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat butter for two minutes. Add in sugar and vanilla, beat until combined, about 1 minute. Add in eggs and sour cream, beating for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add in flour, baking powder, and salt, then add buttermilk. Beat until fluffy and blended, about 30 seconds.
  4. Scoop batter evenly into cupcake tin, about 2/3 full. Bake on the middle rack for about 20 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  5. Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients: Letting refrigerated ingredients like eggs and sour cream come to room temperature first, helps incorporate them more easily into the batter.
  • Do not overfill cupcake liners: For evenly baked cupcakes, fill liners about 2/3 of the way with batter. This ensures the tops will not puff over the egde, so you'll have a smooth flat top for adding frosting.
  • Let cool completely before frosting. Cupcakes that are even slightly warm will make the frosting get soft and runny.
  • FROSTING: These cupcakes are topped with our favorite chocolate sour cream frosting. You could also use chocolate buttercream frosting or vanilla frosting if you prefer.
