Funfetti Cupcakes for 3

When you just need a few cupcakes, this recipe comes in handy!

I made these for Mason's 5th birthday in 2020. He loves funfetti cake and since I was also making a cake for my sister-in-law whose birthday is the day after Mason's, I figured I'd make a small batch just for him. I was supposed to post the birthday cake that I made for my sister-in-law last Friday, but haven't gotten it up yet. I hope to do that soon, so if you're interested in a Take 5 cheesecake, keep your eyes peeled for that :)

What you need:

For the cupcakes:

• 1 large egg
• 3 Tbsp. granulated sugar
• 3 Tbsp. vegetable oil
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup all purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• Pinch of salt
• 2 Tbsp. milk
• 2 Tbsp. confetti sprinkles, plus some for garnish
  

For the cake batter frosting:

• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• 2 1/2 Tbsp. French Vanilla cake mix
• 1 to 2 Tbsp. milk
  

Directions:

1. For the cupcakes: Combine egg, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl with a whisk.
2. Add oil and whisk in.
3. Then add flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir until just combined.
4. Add milk and stir gently. Then fold in sprinkles.
5. Divided between three cupcake liners in a muffin pan.
6. Bake it in a preheated 350 degree oven for 12 to 14 minutes or until it springs back when you press the center. Let cool completely.
7. For the frosting: Beat butter with an electric mixer. Add powdered sugar and beat to combine.
8. Add vanilla, pinch of salt, and cake mix. Beat together.
9. Add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a piping consistency.
10. Transfer to a piping bag and pipe onto cooled cupcakes. Garnish with extra sprinkles.
