Calamity Vanilla Bean Cupcakes

You know those days when everything seems to go wrong, but then you bite into something so sweet it turns your day around? That’s the magic of these Calamity Vanilla Bean Cupcakes.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (sifted for lighter cupcakes)
- 1 cup granulated sugar (or a bit less if you prefer less sweetness)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (room temperature blends better)
- 2 large eggs (bring to room temperature for even mixing)
- 2 tsp vanilla bean paste (or extract, but paste gives those lovely specks)
- 1/2 cup whole milk (any milk works, but whole gives richness)
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder (ensure it’s fresh for best rise)
- 1/4 tsp salt (balances the sweetness)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Tip: Scrape the bowl sides to ensure even mixing.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla bean paste.
- Alternately add the flour mixture (flour, baking powder, salt) and milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Mix until just combined. Tip: Overmixing leads to dense cupcakes.
- Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Tip: Rotate the pan halfway for even baking.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Light, fluffy, and speckled with vanilla, these cupcakes are a hug in dessert form. Try topping them with a swirl of vanilla buttercream and a sprinkle of edible glitter for that extra sparkle on a tough day.

Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (for a lighter texture, sift it first)
- 2 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)
- 1 tbsp baking powder (ensure it’s fresh for fluffier pancakes)
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup milk (any type works, but whole milk adds richness)
- 1 large egg (room temperature blends better)
- 2 tbsp melted butter (or any neutral oil)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure extract for the best flavor)
Instructions

- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay. Overmixing leads to tough pancakes.
