Valentine's Day Confetti Cupcakes!

This Valentines day why buy something to show you love someone, instead BAKE something with LOVE <3  In doing this baking project, I realized that making frosting is more of a challenge than I expected, BUT this recipe I used is simple and always gets you an amazing tasty cream cheese frosting so ENJOY!

Ingredients for Cupcakes:

3/4 a Cup of Melted Butter
3/4 a Cup of Sugar
1 Egg
1 Egg white
1 Tsp of Vanilla Extract
1/2 a Cup of Milk
1 and 1/4 a cup of Flour(sifted)
1/4 Tsp of salt
1 and 1/2 Tsp of Baking Powder
2-3 Tbs of Sprinkles(i used pink white and red sprinkles)

Ingredients for Cream Cheese Frosting:
8oz of Cream Cheese
4 tbs of Butter
1 tsp of Vanilla Extract
4 cups of Powdered sugar(make sure it is sifted)

1) In one bowl mix the Sugar, Milk, Melted Butter, vanilla extract and the eggs

2) In a separate bowl mix the Flour, Salt, and baking powder and slowly add it to the liquid mixture while continuously mixing.

3) while mixing still you can add food coloring if you want pink cupcakes

4) Once you have a smooth mixture you can add in the sprinkles and mix it with a spoon.

5) Fill each cupcake 3/4's of the way up and put it in the oven for 15-18 mins on 365 degrees

You will know when the cupcakes are done when you stick a toothpick in them and nothing comes out.

When you take the cupcakes out you will have the fluffiest, mouth watering cupcakes! While the cupcakes are cooling you can work on the Cream Cheese Frosting :)

1) In a bowl add the cream cheese, butter and vanilla extract and mix until smooth

2) In separate bowl sift the powdered sugar and slowly mix into the cream cheese mixture

3) Now you have a cream Cheese frosting! If you want to add spunk, add in a Tbs of sprinkles

Now that you're frosting is done and your cupcakes are cooled, you can ice your cupcakes! To make it a little bit funner I added heart gobstopper candies on top as shown below

I hope you and your loved one enjoy :)
