I have always been kind of apprehensive about making cupcakes. They look so perfect in bakeries and in pictures, that I actually hesitate to take a bite of them and spoil their delicate beauty. :D So I worry that mine wouldn't turn out so pretty.
So, I had some buttermilk left over last weekend after I baked the Buttermilk Cake (my previous post) and I finally decided to give cupcakes a try. A quick Google search showed me a nice, easy looking recipe from Baking Bites, Vanilla Buttermilk Cupcakes. Exactly what I was looking for.
The recipe makes 12 cupcakes and I have only a 6-cupcake mold, so I had make the batter and bake in two batches. I feared the batter wouldn't work well the second time around, but it was fine, since cupcakes don't bake that long anyway.
My first batch of cupcakes ever!
