- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ cup butter softened
- ½ cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup buttercream frosting pastel colored
- ½ cup sprinkles Easter-themed
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line mini muffin tin.
In a bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla, then mix well.
Combine dry ingredients separately, then gradually add to wet mixture.
Pour in milk and mix until smooth.
Fill liners 2/3 full and bake for 10–12 minutes.
Cool completely, then frost and decorate.
- Use gel food coloring for vibrant pastel frosting.
- Do not overfill liners to avoid overflow.
- Rotate pan halfway through baking for even results.
For bakery-style results, chill your cupcakes slightly before piping frosting—this helps create clean, professional swirls.
