How to Tell When Cupcakes are Done

How to Tell When Cupcakes are Done

I use two different ways to determine if cupcakes are done:

1. Lightly touch a cupcake and see if it bounces back.  If your hand sinks through, it's not done.
2. Stick a toothpick into the center of a cupcake.  If it comes out dry, it's done.

 Note: If you have two racks of cupcakes, be sure to test a cupcake from each rack as baking times may vary.
