Description
Warm and rich buttery cupcakes with a sweet and nutty frosting, a perfect pairing of cake and frosting. These cupcakes are so good, I suggest eating them warm!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Browned Butter, Divided
- 1 box (18.25 Oz. Size) Yellow Cake Mix
- 3 whole Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract, Divided
- 4 Tablespoons Heavy Cream
- 3-¾ cups Powdered Sugar
Preparation
Brown your butter. In a medium skillet over medium heat, cook butter until it turns dark golden, almost too dark. Remove from the heat and cool.
Mix together cake mix, eggs, milk, 1 teaspon vanilla and 1/2 cup browned butter.
Scoop batter into paper liners, filling 3/4 full. Bake at 350ºF for 12–15 minutes, until lightly golden and cake springs back when lightly touched. Remove from the oven and cool.
Meanwhile, mix together remaining browned butter, vanilla extract, cream and powdered sugar. If the frosting is too thick, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons of cream to your desired consistency.
Top with browned butter frosting.
These cupcakes are so delicious warm, right out of the oven with the frosting melting on top.
