Ingredients
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
2 whole eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/3 cup milk, room temperature
1/3 cup assorted brightly colored sprinkles + more for top of frosting
vanilla buttercream
2 sticks of unsalted buter- room temperature.
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2-4 tsp milk or cream
1 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
Sprinkles for decorating
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Cream butter and sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer until fluffy, and pale about 3 minutes.
Scrape down the bowl and add eggs and vanilla and beat until combined. Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk gradually, mixing only until just combined. Don't over mix! Fold in the sprinkles and pour into cupcake tins - filling them 2/3 of the way. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Let cool, then frost.
For Frosting:
In a large bowl, cream the butter until it is fluffy and pale. Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until it is well combined and thick. Add the vanilla paste and 1 tsp at a time of milk until the frosting is a creamy and good spreading consistency. Pipe/Spread on cupcakes and top with sprinkles.
