I Want Flat Topped Cupcakes!

Hi everyone! Please, can someone help me??? How do I get flat topped cupcakes????
Sincerely,

Well - depends on the recipe. The WASC cake recipe bakes flat.
I, too, want to ask the very same question last week. So after a bit of research, I made some cupcakes on Friday and made for the first-time ever perfect flat topped cupcakes and there was no Mount Vesuviuses in sight! I can offer two pieces of advice as to where I was going wrong. Firstly, I was putting too much mixture into each cupcake case and secondly I lowered the temperature by 10 degrees (as opposed to when I am baking a cake). The result was perfect flat topped cupcakes. Good luck.
Depends on the recipe.
My vanilla buttermilk cupcakes (at the end of this link) always bake flat. Temperature 325˚F.

I use the same recipe for either a dome or flat top. As suggested by other posters....I bake at 325 for a bit longer and am careful not to over fill.
