Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 1 1/2 cups buttercream frosting (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips (for the drip)
- 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 12 mini cookies (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Add dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with milk, beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Fold in rainbow sprinkles and divide batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool completely before frosting.
- Pipe buttercream frosting onto cooled cupcakes.
- To make the drip, melt white chocolate chips and heavy cream together in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly, then drizzle over the frosted cupcakes.
- Top each cupcake with a mini cookie and extra sprinkles for garnish.
Notes
- Use confetti or rainbow sprinkles that won’t bleed color into the batter.
- Make the white chocolate drip thicker by adding less cream if preferred.
- These cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
