Making Sprinkle Heart Valentine’s Day Cupcakes is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
5. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Add the milk and vanilla extract to the mixture, stirring until combined.
6. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
7. Fill Cupcake Liners: Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
8. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool: Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5-10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
