Step-by-Step Instructions for Honey Peach Cream Cheese Cupcakes
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened unsalted butter and sugar together until light and fluffy (3-4 minutes).
  4. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each, then add the vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
  5. Alternately add the flour mixture and sour cream to the creamed mixture, starting and ending with flour.
  6. Fold in the chopped peaches gently to distribute them throughout the batter.
  7. Spoon the batter into cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, checking for doneness with a toothpick.
  9. Cool the cupcakes in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the frosting, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, gradually mix in sugar, honey, and vanilla.
  11. Once cooled, frost the cupcakes generously and garnish as desired.
