Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the large eggs one at a time, and then mix in the vanilla extract until well incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the butter and sugar mixture, alternating with the sour cream, and mix until just combined.
- Combine brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl, add melted butter, and stir until it forms a paste.
- Spoon batter into each muffin cup, add a layer of cinnamon paste, and top with more batter, swirling gently with a toothpick.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to prepare the glaze, achieving a smooth consistency.
- Drizzle glaze over cooled cupcakes and serve with a warm beverage.
