I went to see Sex and the City 2 last night and it was Fab-u-Luss! There was a scene where Charlotte was baking cupcakes and wearing a super cute cupcake apron. Of course, the scene that put cupcake bakeries on the map was from the HBO series - Carrie eating a cupcake from Magnolia Bakery.
To celebrate the opening weekend of the movie and vanilla cupcakes....here is the recipe from Magnolia Bakery!
Magnolia Bakery Vanilla Cupcakes
1 1/2 cups Self-Rising flour
1 1/4 All-Purpose flour
1 cup butter - softened
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs - room temperature
1 cup milk
1 tsp. vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare cupcake pans with liners. Combine flours and set aside.
Cream butter and add sugar gradually. Beat until fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add eggs, one at a time. Add dry ingredients in 3 parts, alternating with milk and vanilla. Do not overbeat. Fill liners 3/4 full. Bake for 20 minutes - checking frequently after 15 minutes. Cool completely.
