Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups white sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the optimal temperature for baking, which is 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and cream cheese until they form a smooth and velvety mixture. Gradually add granulated sugar to this blend, continuing to mix until it becomes light and airy.
3
Introduce eggs one by one into the mixture, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. This process will help to create a smooth and cohesive batter.
4
Add a few drops of vanilla extract to the mixture, which will enhance its flavor and aroma.
5
In a separate container, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda to create a dry ingredient blend.
6
Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, alternating with sour cream and mixing until everything is well combined.
7
Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one about two-thirds full to ensure they are evenly filled.
8
Place the muffin cups in the preheated oven and bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the muffins comes out clean, which should take around 20 to 24 minutes.
