Description

Delightful Vanilla Rose Cupcakes infused with floral hints, perfect for gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Pink food coloring (optional)
  • Rose flavored extract (optional)
  • Buttercream frosting
  • Edible rose petals (for decoration)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
  2. Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  3. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. If desired, add a few drops of pink food coloring and rose extract for flavor.
  7. Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before decorating with buttercream frosting.
  10. Top with edible rose petals for an elegant finish.

Notes

Using room temperature butter and eggs can improve the texture; consider adjusting rose flavored extract to your taste.
