Prep Time: 25 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup pink frosting
- 1/4 cup edible glitter
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition to ensure they are fully incorporated into the batter.
- Pour in the milk and vanilla extract, and continue to mix until the wet ingredients are well combined with the butter and sugar mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt to combine. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing just until the batter is smooth and no lumps remain. Be careful not to overmix.
- Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
- Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, use a spatula or piping bag to generously frost each cupcake with the pink frosting.
- To finish, sprinkle the edible glitter over the frosted cupcakes, ensuring an even distribution for that glamorous touch.
- Serve the Fem Queen Realness Cupcakes at your next gathering and enjoy the delightful flavors and fabulous presentation!
Tips
- Room Temperature is Key: Ensure your butter, eggs, and milk are at room temperature for a smoother, more consistent batter.
- Don't Overmix: Mix your batter just until ingredients are combined to keep your cupcakes light and fluffy.
- Even Baking Hack: Rotate your muffin tin halfway through baking to ensure uniform cooking and golden tops.
- Cooling is Crucial: Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting to prevent the pink frosting from melting.
- Glitter Application Pro Tip: Sprinkle edible glitter while frosting is still slightly tacky for maximum sparkle and best adherence.
- Storage Advice: Store these fabulous cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain their fierce freshness!
