Galaxy Frosting

Let butter come to room temperature. Beat butter so it’s smooth and slowly whisk in powdered sugar. Whisk until well-combined.

Whisk in vanilla extract and whisk until buttercream is light and fluffy.

Divide buttercream into 4 bowls and add a different color of gel food coloring to each bowl (black, pink, purple, teal).

Plop all the colors into one piping bag with a star tip, and pipe on top of cupcakes.

Using a baking paintbrush, flick white food coloring over the tops to give a nice starstruck effect. Repeat with luster dust. Sprinkle edible glitter stars over the top and enjoy!

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
