Hello!
Is the water in the cupcake recipe boiling hot or room temp water? Thanks!

In reply to raina. You could certainly make that substitution! Or using 1 cup butter only works as well!

In reply to Mayra. Slightly softened to room temperature is fine.

In reply to Jessica. Buttermilk is more acidic, so swapping it for whole milk can sometimes skew your results if there is not enough baking soda in the recipe to neutralize the acid of the buttermilk. The fat content is also a variable as well. You can read more about how milk and buttermilk affect a cake recipe in our article HERE.

In reply to katelyn. Instead of using 1/2 cup butter and 1/2 cup shortening -- use 1 cup butter only.
