Amy Sedaris's Vanilla Cupcakes

Excellent vanilla cupcake. I do add 1 extra tsp of vanilla and half a cup of greek yogurt with honey. They stay moist for days. My husband, who only liked chocolate cupcakes up until now, loves these and says that I do not need to make chocolate anymore.

YUM! This was exactly what I was looking for - a super good, straightforward vanilla cupcake! WIth a perfect texture! I think this would also be so good using almond extract - next time!! Thanks for sharing! **I also want to add that these dried out pretty quickly, so be sure to frost as soon as they're cool.

These were perfect! good basic cupcake recipe. Will do again and hightly recommend.

Made these for a baby shower and the Grandmother to be asked me if I used cake mix, it's funny because I thought they tasted like a box mix too!

Great recipe! I made them today and they turned out delicious. I did add 1/2 cup of greek yogurt (vanilla-honey flavored). I did the yogurt based off of another review and they turned out fantastic!!!

This is the first time my children have eaten not only the frosted top, but the entire cupcake! That's the highest possible praise a cupcake can receive. The adults in the house weren't disappointed either. Thank you for posting.

These tasted very good but not quite the cupcake texture I was looking for.I was hoping they would be lighter but they were more like a pound cake.Very good all the same. I didn't use the icing recipe that was here.

I was excited to try these based on all of the reviews but would have to say these were ok. There really wasn't a vanilla taste to them, nor were the sweet tasting, they were just blah.

I made the cupcakes yesterday and follow the exact recipe. It was light & fluffy but very dry especially if you are planning to store them in the refregirator if your icing needs so. Mine did not. So, it was just OK. I am sure there are a ton of better moist vanilla cupcake recipes out there.
Thank you for sharing your recipe.

The frosting didn't turn out all and the cake was just average. Save the trouble and buy a box cake mix and some store bought frosting.

This is an excellent recipe! I used this recipe yesterday to make an assortment of Easter cupcakes. The cupcakes have a nice tender texture and good flavor. I used the hint of adding the extra vanilla to the batter. I did not try the frosting from this recipe but used a basic buttercream frosting instead. I'll definitely make these again.

Simply wonderful! Loved them. This is a well tested and thought out recipe. These are commercial quality cupcakes. I used cake flour and instead of just vanilla I used pure vanilla,lemon, and orange extracts. I love these cupcakes. Thanks for sharing and posting!

My first attempt at cupcakes. I did not use the icing recipe. I cheated and used already made icing. Everybody who tried the cupcakes loved them! I'll try other recipes but I saved this one to my cookbook and I am sure to make them again! Moist and flavourful and easy to make!

Great texture and flavour to these cupcakes. They would make an excellent starter cupcake, but for me, it still didn't have enough vanilla flavour (I used 1 tbsp vanilla extract). Maybe a vanilla bean would have a stronger taste?

These are terrific! Great vanilla flavor(used 3t). I couldn't stop eating them. Good thing (or too bad) most went to preschool where perfection is not appreciated. Cake had a denser crumb than what I am used to. I loved it, but I would like to try these again with cake flour and see if there's much difference.

The flavor of these cupcakes is great! They were moist and very tasty. Mine tended to flatten out and spread more than I would have liked. I will be making again. Thank you.
