Notes

For extra moist cupcakes, consider using buttermilk. Avoid overmixing the batter to prevent dense cupcakes. You can use high-quality instant vanilla pudding as a filling substitute if short on time, but be aware it may alter the flavor. Store filled cupcakes in the fridge and bring them to room temperature before serving for the best texture. Wrap and freeze individual cupcakes for up to three months for longer storage.
