Directions
Kittencal’s Easy One-Bowl Vanilla Cupcakes,This recipe goes back over 20 years, I like the simplicity of this recipe and for a one bowl cupcake they are pretty darn good, 1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract may be used in place of the vanilla, using butter in place of shortening will alter the texture it is best to only use shortening — if you don’t have paper liners grease the tins generously or see my recipe#78579,Read the reviews after we already started, but found one that said the original recipe had ” 3.5 tsp of baking powder, 1 cup half and half or milk, and 3 eggs” and given everyone said they were dense and heavy so we made those corrections. Not the lightest fluffiest of cupcakes, but easy and edible,First time I’ve not been happy with a Kittencal recipe. The batter was cookie-like but I hoped it would still turn out ok. Looked like, had the texture of, and tasted like corn bread. No clue how that happened.
