Categories     Egg     Dessert     Bake     Cupcake

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cupcakes:
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Vanilla Buttercream Icing:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups sifted confectioners' sugar (approximately 1 pound)
2 to 3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with cupcake papers. In a small bowl, combine the flours. Set aside. In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth. Add the sugar gradually and beat until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the dry ingredients in three parts, alternating with the milk and vanilla. With each addition, beat until the ingredients are incorporated but do not overbeat. Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the batter in the bowl to make sure the ingredients are well blended. Carefully spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling them about three-quarters full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a cake tester inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes in the tins for 15 minutes. Remove from the tins and cool completely on a wire rack before icing. Note: If you would like to make a layer cake instead of cupcakes, divide the batter between two 9-inch round cake pans and bake the layers for 30 to 40 minutes. Buttercream Icing: In large bowl, cream butter with electric mixer. Add vanilla. Gradually add sugar, one cup at a time, beating well on medium speed. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl often. When all sugar has been mixed in, icing will appear dry. Add milk and beat at medium speed until light and fluffy. Keep bowl covered with a damp cloth until ready to use. For best results, keep icing bowl in refrigerator when not in use. Refrigerated in an airtight container, this icing can be stored 2 weeks. Rewhip before using.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients. This will help the buttercream come together smoothly and prevent it from curdling.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar. Adding it too quickly can cause the buttercream to become too thick and grainy.
  • Beat the buttercream on high speed for at least 2 minutes. This will help it become light and fluffy.
  • Taste the buttercream and adjust the sweetness to your liking. You can add more powdered sugar if you want it to be sweeter, or more milk or cream if you want it to be less sweet.
  • Use the buttercream immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. If you are storing it in the refrigerator, let it come to room temperature before using it.

Conclusion:

Magnolia Bakery's Vanilla Buttercream is a classic frosting that is perfect for cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its smooth, creamy texture and delicious vanilla flavor, this buttercream is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
