Mixing the memories

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 and a half cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Stir them together until they reminisce about the good old days.

Creaming the past

In another bowl, cream together 1/2 cup of unsalted butter (at room temperature), 1 cup of granulated sugar, and a dash of vanilla extract. Whip them together until they become fluffy and reminiscent of childhood laughter.

Eggs from yesteryear

Now, it's time to add 2 eggs, one at a time, into the buttery mixture. Take a moment to appreciate how each egg adds a touch of nostalgia to these cupcakes. Mix well after each addition and let the memories blend together.

Nutmeg dreams

Next, gently pour in 1/2 cup of milk and sprinkle in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg. Mix until everything is incorporated and you can smell the sweet scent of cherished moments from the past.

Baking with love

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and fill them with the batter, filling each liner about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean and the cupcakes have risen to their full nostalgic potential.

Whipped cream wonders

While the cupcakes are cooling, whip up some whipped cream. Grab a chilled bowl, pour in 1 cup of heavy cream, 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whip it good until you achieve soft peaks of deliciousness.

Building memories

Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, it's time to build memories with layers of goodness. Take each cupcake, slice off the top, and set it aside. Spoon a dollop of whipped cream onto the bottom of the cupcake, place the reserved top on it, and finish it off with another dollop of whipped cream. Repeat this charming process for all the cupcakes.

Nutmeg sprinkles

To add a touch of nutmeg magic, sprinkle a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg on top of each cupcake. This step is optional, but it will evoke even stronger feelings of nostalgia. Go ahead, let the nutmeg take you back to the good ol' days!
