1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened, room temperature
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
2 large eggs, room temperature
2 Tbsp sour cream
2 tsp pure vanilla extract, or vanilla paste
1/3 cup whole milk, room temperature

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, fitted with a paddle attachment, cream butter. Add granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs one at at time, mix on low speed until eggs are incorporated. Add vanilla and sour cream. Mix until incorporated.
4. Add 1/3 of flour mixture, followed by 1/2 of milk. Mix on low speed until almost combined. Add another 1/3 cup flour, followed by remaining 1/2 of milk. Once again mix on low speed. Add the last 1/3 of flour and mix until batter is smooth and there are no more streaks of dry mixture.

Vanilla Cream Cheese Icing
Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature, softened
8 oz cream cheese, cold
3 1/2 – 4 cups confectioners’ sugar, sifted
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt
1-2 Tbsp heavy cream
1 drop of gel food paste coloring in electric blue
Instructions
1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream together butter and cream cheese. Mix on low speed until mixture is smooth. Be patient and do not increase the speed, you don’t want the icing to have too many air bubbles. Scrape down bowl as necessary to ensure thorough mixing.
2. Add 3 1/2 cups of sifted confectioners’ sugar (powdered sugar). Mix on low speed until incorporated. Add vanilla, salt, and 1 Tbsp of heavy cream.
3. Add 1 drop of gel food paste color. One tiny drop of electric blue is all you need to get that nice pastel blue.
4. Add additional confectioners’ sugar if icing is too thin. Add another tablespoon of heavy cream if icing is too thick. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a piping tip of your choice. Pipe icing onto cooled cupcakes.
5. Decorate cupcakes with desired decor. If you leave frosted cupcakes out at room temperature for 30 minutes to an hour, a nice crust will form on the icing. This will make the icing more stable and travel-friendly. Otherwise, keep the cupcakes in the fridge and let sit out at room temperature for at least 10 minutes to soften the icing.
