Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line 2 muffin pans with cupcakes wrappers.
If using a stand mixer, fit with paddle attachment.
Cream together the butter and the sugar.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating them completely between each egg.
Add in the rest of the ingredients and beat to combine.
Using a spoon, fill cupcake wrappers 2/3 of the way full with batter.
Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes.
