Ninja Foodie Recipe

Vanilla flat cakes (combo of a shortcakes and cupcake)

Ingredients

1 and 1/3 cup (165 grams) pastry Flour 1 and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup (115 grams) unsalted butter, softened 1/2 cup (100 grams) granulated sugar 2 large eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/3 cup (120 grams) sour cream

If not using a Ninja Foodie- Preheat regular oven to 350F. Line a 12-count muffin pan with cupcake liners. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large mixing bowl using a hand-held mixer), beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then the vanilla. Add in the sour cream and mix until fully combined.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until just combined, making sure not to over mix the batter.

Scoop the batter into the cupcake liners, until all batter is used up, (about 1/2 way)

Bake in separate batches- if using Ninja Foodie (6 cupcakes at a time) * Ninja Foodie take less then a minute to preheat- once preheated stick the first batch in at 350F for 12-16 minutes (regular oven place flat cakes in center rack and bak up to 20 minutes- depending on your oven) or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.

Remove from Ninja Foodie or regular oven and allow to cool for a couple of minutes. Remove all of the cupcakes from the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
