These cupcakes are the classic choice for birthday parties, but they’re perfect for any occasion. Choose between a gooey chocolate frosting and a smooth chocolate glaze, then decorate them with oodles of sprinkles.
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 24 cups of two standard muffin pans with paper or foil liners.
Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the buer and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the eggs and yolks one at a time, beating well aer each addition. Turn off the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add the vanilla and beat until combined. Add about half of the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until blended. Add the sour cream and mix on low speed just until combined. Add the remaining flour mixture and mix just until blended.
Step 3: Divide the baer evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake until the tops are light golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 22 to 24 minutes. Remove the pans from the oven and set them on a wire rack. Let cool for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer the cupcakes directly to the rack. Let cool completely, about 1 hour.
Step 4: If decorating the cupcakes with chocolate frosting, use a small icing spatula or a buer knife, or a pastry bag fied with a plain or star tip (see page 15), top the cupcakes with the frosting, then decorate them with sprinkles (if using). If glazing the cupcakes, spoon the chocolate glaze over the cupcakes, then decorate them with sprinkles (if using).
