Theres nothing I love more than cupcakes. These moist and delicious. Topped with vanilla frosting and a hint of snowflakes.
My daughter is obsessed with sprinkles! she dreams of them day and night and would eat them on anything.. of course I don’t let her.. but once in a while I make these cupcakes with snowflake sprinkles and she adores them.
The sprinkles are from cake-mate “sequins snowflakes”. You can find them in your local supermarket.
