Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
-
In a mixing 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.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
-
Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with the batter. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the powdered sugar and enough water to make a thick glaze. Divide the glaze into separate bowls and add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl, creating different colors.
-
Dip the top of each cupcake into the colored glaze, allowing the excess to drip off. Immediately sprinkle mini marshmallows on top of the glaze.
-
Let the cupcakes rest for 10 minutes to allow the glaze to set. Enjoy!
