Ingredients

Scale

Cupcake Batter

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup milk

Surprise Filling

  • 1 cup pink or blue frosting (or candies)

Frosting and Decorations

  • 2 cups vanilla buttercream frosting

Instructions

  • Prepare the Batter: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract.
  • Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Mix until smooth.
  • Bake the Cupcakes: Divide the batter evenly into liners. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely.
  • Add the Filling: Hollow out the center of each cupcake with a knife or corer. Fill with pink or blue frosting. Replace the removed top piece.
  • Decorate: Frost the cupcakes with buttercream and add sprinkles or themed decorations.

Notes

  • Use gel food coloring for vibrant pink or blue frosting.
  • Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
