- Using an ice-cream scoop or small measuring cup, fill the cupcake liners to about 3/4 full.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 350°. Test to see if toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool to room temperature before applying icing.

Notes
- Depending on how full you fill each cupcake liner, this recipe will make about 20 to 24 cupcakes.
- This recipe also works if you want to make a cake, just pour the batter into a greased 9 x 13-inch baking pan and bake for 20 minutes.
- We liked to add a creamy chocolate frosting on top to balance the vanilla to the chocolate but you can use whatever frosting you want.
