Step 1

Start by setting your oven for 400°F (200°C) and place muffin liners in a muffin tin or on a baking sheet.

Step 2

Place your room temperature butter and your sugar in a large bowl and mix until fluffy and creamy.

Step 3

Add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix well, until fluffy.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, mix together flour and baking powder. Then add it to the egg, butter & sugar mixture and mix just enough for everything to be combined.

Step 5

Add in the milk and mix gently, until just combined.

Step 6

Using two spoons, scoop your batter into the muffin liners. Don't fill them more than 3/4 of the way as they will rise.

Step 7

Bake in the lower part of the oven for 16-20 minutes. Test with a cake tester or tooth pick – it should come out with no or very little cake batter when they are done. Enjoy!
