This was a simple recipe and so good! Everyone thought they tasted like sugar cookies! Nothing wrong with that! When they rose they never turned very brown on top and I thought they weren't done, but a toothpick inserted into the middle came out clean. So even if they look a little wet on the top, they may be done! Added some extra vanilla to the frosting and a few sprinkles and it was hard not to eat more than one!

This is the yummiest cupcake recipes we have ever made! We have used Betty Crocker for years but she doesn't hold a candle to these. We whipped them up in the stand mixer and the batter was deliciously light and incredible. My in laws were even dipping into the bowl for some batter. The Cyrus cheese cake sat in the fridge and we all ate the special "diet" cupcakes disappeared. We topped them with a simple cream cheese frosting and they really popped! Thank you for the recipes. These are gonna be my new secret weapon. Thank you!

I so badly wanted to like these, but they turned out awful! They were very dry and dense. I would definitely not make them again.

I was pretty disappointed with this recipe. The cupcakes came out a bit dry and not very flavorful. I made sure I checked on the cupcakes regularly so I am sure I did not over bake. I would cut down on some of the dry ingredients or use buttermilk instead.

This turned out ok for me. I loved how the top of the cupcakes hardened a bit while cooking and tasted like sugar cookies. The inside, however, was a bit dry and lacking in flavor even though I doubled the vanilla. I would recommend stirring in the dry ingredients with a wooden spoon so as not to overmix.

The batter on these puppies is simply amazing in texture, amazing! They are a great, light, sweet treat! We don't use self- rising flour around here, so in lieu of it, I used 1 1/2 c flour, then subtracted 3 tsp of flour. I added 2 1/4 tsp baking powder and 3/4 tsp salt to make up the difference, and it came out great!

Incredible. Followed directions precisely and they were lovely: moist and full of flavor - these are now at the top of the cupcake recipe heap for me. Thanks Magnolia!

Oh my goodness these are fantastic! I have made 2 batches and they have been gobbled up. I have also tried chocolate buttercream on there which is yum. But the plain vanilla frosting is the best. Thanks so much they are so easy to make. Love them

I added 1 cup of strawberry jam and little slices of fresh strawberry (decreasing the sugar by 1 cup). Mmmmm!

I don't know what happened with mine. I made these with my nieces one weekend. The cupcakes came out dense and extremely sweet for the buttercream frosting suggested. the girls wouldn't even eat a whole cupcake. If anyone has any ideas on what I did wrong please let me know.

These are absolutely delicious! What I did was I had made a sauce of crushed, thickened pineapple a few days ago and I wanted to use it up, so I thought of a cupcake/muffin. I made these cupcakes, increased the vanilla, and added a little over 1/4 cup of the pineapple sauce to the batter in step 6. Then I filled the muffin cups and put a dab of sauce on the center of each, and sprinkled it with almonds chopped small in the food processor mixed with sugar. While baking, the pineapple sunk down into the center, with the nuts swirled around it. My mom says they are the best ones she has ever tasted, ranking up with her all-time favorite peach ones. And that is high praise! Thank you for an awesome recipe!

I do see how someone might consider these dry, but they are also very delicate and have a great flavor. When iced, its almost impossible to discern. They are great for both grown ups who want a good taste, and kids who are probably just going to eat tye frosting and cruble the cupcake anyway. Thanks!

Four stars because I did not quite follow the recipe. I used almond extract in place of vanilla and Crisco instead of butter because I only had 2 sticks of butter and wanted to save them for the frosting. Magnolia's cupcakes are incredible and I can't remember if these taste exactly the same. One thing is dead on - if you have more than one, you will be very, very sorry!!! They're so rich! This is my cupcake recipe from now on!!! Mmmmm.

These are heavenly cupcakes- I have taken this recipe and modified it more ways than you could imagine- and they come out perfect every time... Want strawberry cupcakes? Add some homemade strawberry jam and a little less sugar- want Banana cupcakes- add a few mashed bannanas, want white chocolate? add some white chocolate instant pudding mix- less sugar... HAVE FUN AND BE ADVENTUROUS! After all, if you make a mistake- you just learned a new way NOT to make ____ flavored cupcakes! :) Thanks for the recipe NurseDi! They're heavenly!
