Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, and a pinch of salt.
  3. Cream ½ cup of unsalted butter with 1 cup of granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 2 large eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly before stirring in 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed butter mixture, alternating with 1 cup of milk, mixing until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in ½ cup of finely chopped edible flowers.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Frost with your choice of icing and decorate with additional edible flowers before serving.
