Colorful Vanilla Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 180C and place the cupcake tray inside, including the cases.

Place the softened butter and sugar in a bowl. Using an electric mixer, whisk together until there is a fluffy consistency. Next, add the eggs, one by one.

Add the vanilla extract, flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together.

Pour the batter into the cupcake cases.

Bake the cupcakes for 15-17 minutes. The cupcakes should be golden brown. Place a toothpick or skewer in each cupcake to taste if they are ready. If the cupcakes are done, the skewer should be clean, if not, then leave them a bit more, supervised.

While the cupcakes are in the oven, make the buttercream frosting. Whisk the softened butter until it is very soft. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Whisk together until it is a smooth, fluffy consistency. Next, carefully pour in the milk and mix. (Once ready, add food coloring.)

Take the cupcakes out of the oven and let them cool for about 3 minutes. Once cooled, they are ready for frosting. Fell free to decorate them using sprinkles, and cookie crumbs! Enjoy! :)
