I am a huge fan of 'One Bowl Chocolate Cake' by Allrecipes user 'shirleyo' on Allrecipes! I was determined to create a new cake flavor just as moist, fluffy, and homemade. These lemon cupcakes are contest-winning fluffy and moist deliciousness!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

Dry Ingredients:

  • 2 ⅛ cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 cups white sugar

  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder

  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda

  • 1 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 cup milk

  • 2 eggs

  • ½ cup vegetable oil

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 teaspoon lemon extract

  • 1 cup strained fresh lemon juice

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.

  2. Stir flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Beat milk, eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and lemon extract into the dry ingredients using an electric mixer set to medium for 2 minutes.

  3. Bring lemon juice to a boil in a small saucepan and immediately beat into the batter with the electric mixer on low speed.

  4. Fill cupcake liners with batter to about two-thirds full.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 17 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Cook's Note:

Batter will react to the hot lemon juice, so make sure you have a large enough mixing bowl to accommodate the expanded, frothier batter.
