Ingredients
  

Cupcake Ingredients
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cups unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 0.5 cups milk at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
Frosting and Decorations
  • 1 batch Fluffy white frosting (store-bought or homemade)
  • as needed Yellow and white fondant or edible decorations for daisy designs or use buttercream for decorating

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the creamed mixture alternately with milk. Beat just until combined.
  5. Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full with batter.
Baking
  1. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cooling and Decorating
  1. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.
  2. Once cooled, frost with fluffy white frosting.
  3. Decorate each cupcake with yellow and white daisy decorations, using fondant or other edible items to create the flower designs.

Notes

Ensure your eggs and butter are at room temperature for a smoother batter. Check doneness with a toothpick. For flavor variations, consider adding lemon or orange zest.
