📌Quick Tip: Spray the paper cupcake liners with non-stick baking spray before adding the batter. This will help the baked cupcakes not to stick when removing the liners right before serving.
💭Tips for making Perfect Cupcakes
When you're adding the cupcake batter to the pan, be sure to only fill them two thirds to three quarters of the way up the cupcake liner. That way you'll get the perfect shaped cupcake.
One of the easiest way to do this is by using an ice cream or cookie scoop. Try to use a scoop that holds about ¼ cup of batter...which will give you the perfect sized cupcake.
💭Freezing Tips
- I would not freeze cupcakes that are decorated or frosted.
- Allow cupcakes to cool completely before placing them on a baking tray and then in the freezer to flash freeze for 30 minutes. Remove from the freezer and store in an airtight container or freezer safe plastic bag for up to 3 months.
- Remove the cupcakes from the freezer the night before you need them. Then decorate and frost them once fully defrosted.
💡Recipe FAQ
Try not to overmix the batter. When you do that, the air bubbles will collapse giving you a dense cupcake. Also, be sure not to overbake the cupcakes as well. This can cause them to be dry.
