FOR CUPCAKES:

1
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a 12-tin cupcake pan with cupcake wrappers & set aside until ready to use.
2
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment cream the butter & sugar until fluffy. Add the egg, LorAnn Pure Vanilla Extract & LorAnn Super-Strength Bubble Gum Flavor. Beat until combined.

Sift in the flour, baking powder & salt. Turn the mixer to low speed & slowly drizzle in the milk. Beat until batter is smooth, about 60 seconds.

Evenly divide batter amongst the prepared cupcake pan. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the top bounces back to touch. Let cool completely before frosting.
