“Whoops-I added too much baking powder to the cupcake mix, Kate!” I confessed to my sister as I stared into the mixing bowl. “I’m sure it’s fine,” Kate said hopefully. I slid the cupcake pan into the oven, set the timer, and sat down. “Beep!” the timer buzzed from the kitchen. I bolted up from the couch, rushed over to the oven with my mitt on, and pulled the pan out from the oven. “Uhh... Kate? This is NOT fine,” I said as I showed her the cupcakes (or should I say GINORMOUS cupcakes?). “Oh, I suppose these are the result of adding too much baking powder!” she laughed.

Next time that happens, just increase the other ingredients in the recipe to match the amount of baking soda you added.”

Muffins and cupcakes share many similarities, however, there are a few characteristics that set these pastries apart.

Muffins are dryer than cupcakes. Cupcakes are sweet, soft, and are typically made with more eggs and butter. They are usually slathered in frosting. Muffins are typically eaten as a breakfast food, whereas cupcakes are eaten as a sweet treat or as a dessert. There is no denying how tasty both are.
