Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Grease and lightly flour 2 cupcake pans(24 cupcakes).
• To make the batter: In a small bowl, sift the cake flour and set aside. In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar until very light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time,beating well after each addition.

Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the batter in the bowl, making sure the ingredients are well blended and the batter is smooth.
• Divide the batter among the prepared pans. Arange the oven racks in upper and lower thirds of the oven and bake the cupcakes, switching postions of the pans half through baking, until a tester comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool cupcakes in pan 10 minutes, then remove from pan and cool completely on rack before icing.
