Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoon Butter
• 2 tablespoon Milk
• 2 drop Food coloring

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a muffin tin or line with cupcake liners.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
3. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just blended.
4. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, butter, milk, and food coloring until smooth. Add more milk if needed to achieve desired consistency.
6. Once the cupcakes are cool, frost them with the prepared icing. Decorate as desired.
7. Allow the frosting to set for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
