Ingredients
·
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour ·
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder ·
1/4 teaspoon salt ·
1 stick unsalted butter, softened ·
1 cup sugar ·
2 large eggs, at room temperature ·
2 teaspoons vanilla extract ·
2/3 cup whole milk, at room temperature ·
Frosting, recipe follows, for topping
White Frosting:
·
4 large egg whites ·
3/4 cup sugar ·
Pinch of salt ·
2 sticks unsalted butter, cut into pieces, softened (see Cook's Note) Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder
and salt in a bowl. Beat the butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with the
paddle attachment on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in
the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl as needed. Beat in the vanilla.
Reduce the mixer speed to medium low; beat in half of the flour mixture, then
all of the milk, then the remaining flour mixture until just combined. Divide the batter among the muffin cups,
filling each three-quarters full. Bake until a toothpick
inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 20 minutes,
rotating the pan halfway through. Transfer the pan to a rack and let cool 5
minutes, then remove the cupcakes to the rack to cool completely. Top with
Frosting. Photograph by Levi Brown White Frosting:
Whisk the egg whites, sugar and salt in
a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl
touch the water) until the mixture is warm and the sugar dissolves. Remove the
bowl from the pan; let cool slightly. Beat the egg white mixture in a stand mixer
fitted with the whisk attachment (or with a hand mixer) on medium-high speed
until stiff peaks form, 12 to 15 minutes. Beat in the butter a few pieces at a
time, then continue beating until smooth. (Don't worry
if the mixture looks separated at first-it will come together as you keep
beating.) |

Cook's Note
Make sure that your butter is nice and soft (with
no chill) or the buttercream may curdled when mixing |
