Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C) and lining a cupcake pan with cupcake liners. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate larger bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Slowly mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk until the batter is smooth and well combined.
Using an ice cream scoop or spoon, fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cupcakes cool completely before decorating.
