👩🍳What is the secret to moist cupcakes?
The secret to baking moist 4th of July Cupcakes is to remember all ovens bake differently. Try your best to follow the baking times suggested but start checking a few minutes before the recipe says they'll be done.
If you're really struggling to bake cupcakes that don't turn up dry, try a few of my cake mix baking secrets:
- Oil - if the recipe you're following calls for butter, you can substitute canola oil. The fat content in oil will keep the cupcakes moist.
- Sour Cream - add anywhere from ¾ cup to one full cup of full fat sour cream when baking. I add sour cream to the batter for my Marble Bundt Cake Recipe!
- Cream Cheese - you can add 2 ounces of softened cream cheese.
- Mayonnaise - yes, as strange as this sounds, adding up to two tablespoons of full fat mayonnaise will add moisture to a cake mix batter.
- Eggs - add an extra egg to the cake batter.
