Jam-Filled Cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that will satisfy your sweet tooth. These cupcakes are perfect for any occasion and are sure to impress your guests. To make these cupcakes, you will need the following ingredients:

For the cupcakes:

- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt

For the filling:

- 1/2 cup jam (any flavor you like)

For the frosting:

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp milk
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, until everything is well combined.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Use a spoon to make a small well in the center of each cupcake. Spoon a small amount of jam into each well.
Bake the cupcakes for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, beat the butter until creamy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk, mixing until smooth and creamy. Pipe or spread the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.

The soft and fluffy cupcakes are filled with a burst of fruity jam, and the creamy frosting adds a delicious finishing touch.
