Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fill the muffin liners about 2/3 full. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
