Amy Sedaris' Cupcakes

1 1/2 sticks of unsalted butter
1 3/4 cups of sugar

Beat well, then add:
 
Add 2 large eggs
2 Teaspoons of pure vanilla
1/2 teaspoon of salt
2 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
2 1/2 cups of flour
1 1/4 cups of milk

Beat well, fill cups, and bake at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes. You should get 24. I get 18, 'cause I'm doing something wrong.

Frosting
 
1 stick of unsalted butter
1 box of Domino confectioners sugar
1/4 cup half-and-half
1 teaspoon of pure vanilla

Whip for a while, color if you want.
