    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

    2

    In a bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

    3

    In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract.

    4

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

    5

    Fill the muffin liners about three-quarters full with batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

    6

    Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

    7

    For the almond frosting, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gradually beat in the powdered sugar, butter, and almond extract until smooth and creamy.

    8

    Transfer the almond frosting to a piping bag fitted with your desired tip. Pipe onto the cooled cupcakes.

    9

    Sprinkle with toasted almond slices before serving.
