Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- Purple, green, and yellow food coloring
- 1/4 cup colored sugar sprinkles purple, green, yellow
- 1 small plastic baby figurine optional
- Cream cheese frosting
- Colored sanding sugar purple, green, yellow
Instructions:
Warm up the oven to 350F 175C and put cupcake liners in a muffin tin
Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl
Put away
Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar in another bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy
One at a time, add the eggs and beat well after each one
Add the vanilla extract and mix well
Mix the dry ingredients from step 2 with the wet ingredients from step 3, adding the milk and sour cream in turns
Mix the dry ingredients in at the beginning and end, until they are just combined
Separate the cupcake batter into three equal parts
One piece should be purple, one should be green, and one should be yellow
Put the colored batters in the cupcake liners in this order: purple first, then green, and finally yellow
About two thirds of the way to the top of each liner
If you want to, you can gently press a small plastic baby figurine into one of the cupcakes
Just make sure your guests know about it! Place the cupcakes in an oven that has already been heated
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean
Let the cupcakes cool all the way down before you frost them
To make the cupcakes look like Mardi Gras, frost them with cream cheese frosting and then sprinkle them with purple, green, and yellow sanding sugar
