Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
-
Stir in the rum until well incorporated into the batter.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the rum syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the butter, water, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in the rum.
-
Once the cupcakes are done, while they are still warm, brush the tops with the rum syrup using a pastry brush. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely in the pan.

Serve and enjoy these delicious rum cake cupcakes!
