Bakery Style Vanilla Cupcakes
Ingredients:
Cupcakes:
1 box of Duncan Hines® or Pillsbury® vanilla cake mix
1 3.3 or 3.4 oz box of Jell-O® Instant pudding in vanilla or white chocolate flavor
1 and 1/3 cup of milk
1/2 cup of melted unsalted butter
4 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
Frosting:
4 sticks or 2 cups of room temperature unsalted butter
1 tsp of clear vanilla flavoring
Optional: 1 tsp of almond extract
2 tbsp heavy cream
2 lb bag of powdered sugar
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
In a large bowl, combine the vanilla cake mix, instant pudding mix, milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
For the frosting:
In a separate bowl, beat the room temperature butter until creamy.
Add in the clear vanilla flavoring, almond extract (if using), heavy cream, and gradually mix in the powdered sugar until the frosting reaches your desired consistency.
Once the cupcakes have cooled, pipe or spread the frosting on top of each cupcake.
These bakery style vanilla cupcakes are sure to impress with their light and fluffy texture, rich flavor, and beautifully creamy frosting. Whether you're hosting a party or simply satisfying your sweet tooth, these cupcakes are a delicious treat that everyone will love. Enjoy!
Note: You can store any leftover cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
