Equipment

  • stand mixer
  • muffin tin
  • mixing bowl
  • whisk

Ingredients
  

For the cupcakes

  • 3 cups cake flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter at room temp
  • 0.75 cup granulated sugar
  • 0.75 cup brown sugar packed
  • 2 large eggs lightly beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups sour cream
  • 4 peaches peeled, cored, and diced (small)

For the frosting

  • 8 ounces cream cheese at room temp
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter at room temp
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions
 

Make the cupcakes

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until combined, then add the vanilla and sour cream.
  • Stir the dry ingredients into the wet and then gently fold in the diced peaches.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins and bake for until a toothpick comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool in the muffin tins for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack and allow them to completely cool while you make the frosting.

Make the frosting

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the cream cheese and butter until smooth.
  • Beat in the vanilla then slowly beat in the powdered sugar until smooth. Spread on cooled cupcakes and serve.

Notes

Fresh peaches are ideal for the best flavor and texture, but canned peaches can work in a pinch. Store cupcakes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Freeze unfrosted cupcakes for up to 3 months. You can make the frosting a day in advance. Just store it in the fridge.
