Base Recipe for Gourmet Cupcakes

Gourmet Cupcakes - a Specialty Cupcake that is not just a basic cake! I am in the process of creating a cookbook that will have all of my recipes that I have created over the years. Here is a basic Gourmet cupcake recipe that you can use.

Gourmet Cupcake Base:
3/4 C unsalted butter, softened - room temperature
3/4 C sugar
3 large eggs, beaten and at room temperature
1 1/2 C Cake Flour (is more tender than all-purpose)
1 1/2 t baking powder
1/8 t salt
1 T heavy whipping cream
1 t LorAnn Flavor

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line your muffin tin (I use Fat Daddios) with a glassine cupcake liner (I carry them in my shop).
Beat butter until light and fluffy - 2 to 3 minutes, beat in sugar. In another bowl, add flour, baking powder, and salt, whisk and set aside. Add eggs slowly to wet ingredients. Slowly alternate the dry ingredients with cream and flavor and mix until incorporated. Do not over mix or the gluten will form too much and create a tough product. 
Add batter to liners 2/3 full. Bake 18 to 20 minutes. Let Cool. Makes approximately 16 to 18 cupcakes.
Once cupcakes are cooled, you may fill with a Gourmet filling (found at Ro Z's) with a pastry bag and #1A tip. Then you can ice with buttercream with #1M tip!

Enjoy!
