  3. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, followed by vanilla extract and rose water.
  4. Whisk together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk, mixing until just combined.
  6. Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter.
  7. Bake for 15-18 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
