There is something about cupcakes that my daughter really likes.  Every time we past a pastry department in the grocery store, she would always ask me to buy her a cupcake.  Today was one of those days, but instead of buying her one I promised to bake some with her after she  naps.  She loved that idea.  While she was napping I found couple recipes that I wanted to try.  Here is one of the recipes my family liked!!!

 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter room temperature 
3/4 cup light brown sugar packed 
2 large eggs 
1 1/3 cups flour 
1/2 tsp. baking powder 
1/2 tsp. baking soda 
1/8 tsp. salt 
1/2 cup milk 
1 tsp. vanilla 
1/2 cup chocolate chips (semisweet or bittersweet)


For these cupcakes I used different frosting recipe!
