1

Gather the Ingredients

Before you can create your chai tea cupcakes, gather the following ingredients: flour, sugar, butter, eggs, milk, brewed chai tea, baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and salt.

2

Preheat and Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tray with paper liners. This will ensure your cupcakes come out easily and look adorable!

3

Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cardamom, and salt. This magical mix will bring all the chai tea flavors to life!

4

Blend with Butter and Eggs

In a separate mixing bowl, beat the butter until creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will give your cupcakes the perfect richness.

5

Pour in the Chai Tea and Milk

Slowly pour in the brewed chai tea, gently mixing it into the creamy butter and egg mixture. Add the milk and continue to mix until everything is combined.

6

Combine the Wet and Dry Ingredients

Now comes the magic moment! Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix or your cupcakes may turn out dense.

7

Bake and Cool

Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full. Pop them into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Once baked, let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

Frost and Enjoy!

Now it's time to let your creativity shine! Choose your favorite frosting and generously frost each cupcake. Sprinkle some additional cinnamon on top for that extra chai tea kick. Now take a bite and indulge in the heavenly flavors of your homemade Chai Tea Cupcakes!
