Snickerdoodle Cupcakes


These are one of my all time favorites!! They are so yummy. I actually got this recipe from Bob's sister off her baking blog :)
~
Ingredients:
1 package plain white cake mix
1 cup whole milk
1 stick of butter, melted
3 extra large eggs
1 small box instant white chocolate pudding (I don't even know where to find this. I had to use French Vanilla, but I don't think it matters)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
~
Frosting:
Use buttercream frosting recipe (stick of butter, milk, teaspoon of vanilla, confectioners sugar - combined to the consistency of frosting) PLUS 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
~
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Place cake mix, milk, melted butter, eggs, pudding, vanilla, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl. Blend for three minutes (stop to scrape once).
3. Pour into paper lined cupcake tins and bake for 15-20 minutes.
4. Allow the cakes to cool completely before frosting.
5. Beat butter until fluffy for frosting. Add all other ingredients.
6. Frost using a piping bag and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. (I attempted to use a piping bag for this time, but the bag ended up getting a hole in it so the frosting was coming out all stringy and wormy. So I just used a knife and put the frosting on myself. Not as fun, but still yummy).
