Add the sugar and beat for about 4 minutes.With the mixer on low or medium, gradually add the beaten eggs, about a tablespoon at a time.
Mix together the milk, vanilla and oil.Using lowest speed of mixer OR by hand using a heavy duty scraper, add the flour mixture and milk mixture alternately, beginning and ending with flour and stirring until smooth.Divide batter among cupcake cups so that it cups are about ¾ full.
