Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (for brown butter)
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon chai tea (ground)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

    • Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
  • In a saucepan, melt the 1 cup of butter over medium heat, stirring frequently until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Be careful to not burn it. Once done, remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and brown butter. Beat together on medium-high speed until well combined.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, mix in the buttermilk until smooth.
  • In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and chai spice. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix!
  • Fill each cupcake liner about ¾ full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cold, frost them with your choice of creamy frosting—a vanilla or cream cheese frosting works beautifully—and enjoy!
