Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 cup butter ((softened, at room temperature))
1 ¾ cups sugar
3 large eggs ((at room temperature))
3 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 cup milk ((room temperature, I prefer to use whole milk or 2% milk))
2 ¾ cups cake flour ((or all-purpose flour))
2 tsp vanilla bean caviar ((or vanilla bean paste))

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line 2 muffin pans with cupcake liners.
In a mixing bowl, or the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Add the eggs in one at a time, adding the baking powder and salt with the last egg. Mix until just combined.
Add the milk by adding the first half only, and mixing it into the batter. Add the cake flour (or all-purpose flour) gradually into the wet batter. Finish combining the ingredients with adding the last half of the milk and mixing until smooth, and adding the vanilla bean caviar or paste. Mix until well distributed.
To scrape the vanilla bean caviar from a whole bean: Press the vanilla bean flat on a cutting board then use a sharp knife to cut down the length of the bean to make a slit. Pull the bean open carefully, then use the tip of your knife to scrape down the insides of the bean.
Pour equal portions of the batter into each cupcake liner and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick can be entered into the center of the cupcake and come out clean.
Allow your cupcakes to cool in the pans for about 5 minutes, then remove them from the pan and set them aside so they may cool completely before frosting or serving.
