Cupcake Ingredients:
1 white cake mix
2 eggs1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
Decorations: yellow & red food coloring, candy corns and Halloween sprinkles
Frosting Ingredients:
1 cup un-salted butter
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
Mix cake mix, eggs, sour cream, milk and oil until combined. Beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes.
Divide batter in half and color one half orange and the other half yellow. I used McCormick Food Coloring. For the yellow batter, I used 50 drops of yellow food coloring and for the orange batter, I used 50 drops of yellow and 18 drops of red.
Start filling liners with 1 heaping tablespoon of orange batter. Then top with 2 tablespoons of yellow batter. Bake for 15-18 minutes. Let cupcakes cool, remove paper and decorate with a buttercream frosting, candy corn and sprinkles. Makes about 18 cupcakes.
