Almond Brown Sugar Cupcakes

Ingredients

• 1-½ cup White Granulated Sugar
• ½ cups Brown Sugar - Dark Or Light To Taste
• 3-¼ cups All Purpose Flour, Sifted
• 2-½ teaspoons Baking Powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• ¾ cups Unsalted Butter - Soft
• 1-¼ cup Milk, Room Temperature
• 1-½ teaspoon Almond Extract
• ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
• 4 whole Large Eggs, Room Temperature

Preparation Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugars, flour, baking powder and salt. Add butter (make sure it is nice and soft), and beat on low speed until mix looks sandy.

Combine milk, almond extract, and vanilla extract, and add to the dry ingredients all at once. Mix at low speed for 30 seconds. Increase to medium speed and mix for 30 seconds more.

Scrape bottom and sides of bowl with spatula. With mixer on low speed, add 1 egg. Increase speed to medium and beat for 30 seconds. Repeat this procedure for each additional egg, stopping to scrape the bowl between each. After the last egg has been added, scrape once more and beat at medium-high speed for 30 more seconds.

Fill lined muffin tins 1/2 to 3/4 full. Bake at 350 degrees for 23 to 25 min (or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of a cupcake comes out clean).
