After much research I was able to find a delicious and moist vanilla cupcake recipe - FINALLY!
THE DILEMMA: I baked 24 cupcakes at 325 degrees for about 15-17 mins. About 1/4 turned out great - the REST had bottoms that got too dark? Any tricks on how to fix this? Thank you all!
I have had the same thing happen (no idea why), so I am going to follow this to get some tips/tricks too!
Do you rotate your pan half way through baking? You can also put a cookie sheet on the empty rack below it.
I will give that a whirl! I had no idea a simple cupcake could get so complicated! Oh goodness!
Thank you for your advice!
You're welcome! Cupcakes are the worst, but I love them lol using the cookie sheet helps me a lot, it creates a barrier between that bottom heat element and the bottom of the cupcake pan.
All (at least most) ovens have 'hot spots'. You have to learn how your oven runs/works. In my oven, it's the front 3"-4" that don't bake up well while the rest of the oven almost burns things so turning the pan part way though is necessary.
So I went through a burning streak. I couldn't understand why everything I cooked came out burnt and cooked at lightning speed. Do yourself a favor and buy an oven thermometer. it turns out that my oven was running a hundred degrees hotter than what it was set at! Yeah.

You ladies are GREAT! I tried out the cookie sheet underneath and it worked beautifully! Thank you so much for your responses and knowledge! As we say in Minnesota - UFFDA! :)
i'm not from mn what is "uffda" something like "booyah"?
and i need pronunciation too -- uffdah, uffday, oofdah, oofday? accent on which syllable or is it just a bunch of letters?
Hi - yes! It's kind of like saying "oh goodness" and its pronounced "OOF-DUH"! We are a bunch of Scandinavians here :)
what's that one from the "greek wedding" one ?
oh yeah, "OHpah!"
