So, how to make Magdalenas: Spanish Cupcakes?

Steps to make Magdalenas – Spanish Cupcakes

1	Preheat oven and prepare cupcake holders	5
Preheat oven to 375 °F and line 14 cups in two standard-size muffin tins, with cupcake holders, or thoroughly greasing with butter and dusting with flour.
2	Melt butter	5
In a skillet over low heat, melt the butter and remove just before it is entirely melted. The excess heat can melt the remaining butter. Set aside to cool.

4	Add melted butter	1
Add melted butter and continue mixing constantly.
5	Add lemon zest and milk	1

6	Combine dry ingredients	1
In a separate bowl, sift and then whisk flour and baking powder to combine.
7	Add wet ingredients	5
Gradually add wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients, folding everything together in batches. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
8	Fill cupcake holders	5
With a measuring cup or spoon, pour batter into each prepared cup until halfway full.
9	Garnish with sugar	1
Sprinkle the remaining ¼ sugar over the cupcakes so that each cupcake has a few sprinkles.
10	Bake	20
Bake in preheated oven for 18-20 minutes until magdalenas are golden and a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
11	Serve
