Yields: 24

Cooking Time: 30 min

Ingredients
3 cups cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 eggs
3/4 pound unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 cups sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 teaspoons almond extract
1 cup buttermilk
2 cups sifted powdered sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon extract

Instructions
1.Preheat oven to 350°F.
 
2.Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and the half teaspoon of salt into a medium-size mixing bowl, and set the bowl aside.
 
3.Break the eggs into a small bowl, and set aside.
 
4.In an electric mixer, cream the 3/4 pound of butter and the (granulated) sugar until they are light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes.
 
5.With the mixer running, carefully pour in the eggs and the vanilla and almond extracts.
 
6.Mix in the flour mixture and the buttermilk by alternating between 1 cup of flour and 1/2 cup of buttermilk; be sure to start and end with the flour mixture.
 
7.Line a cupcake tin with paper liners. Fill each cup with batter using an ice-cream scoop with a 1/4-cup capacity; the batter should nearly reach the top of the cups.
 
8.Bake for 25 to 30 minutes. Cool the cupcakes for 45 minutes on a baking rack.
 
9.Generously ice them with white frosting.

White Frosting

1.In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the powdered sugar and the 4 tablespoons of butter until smooth.
