Doctored Cupcakes


Credit for this recipe to my friend Polly, who, by the way, made me the best cupcakes EVER on my birthday a couple of weeks ago. For these yummy, easy cupcakes, skip the instructions on the cake box and use the following ingredients:
1 white cake mix
1 C. whole milk
1 stick butter (melted)
3 lg. eggs
2 tsp vanilla

Combine, mix on low 1 min, scrape sides of bowl, mix on medium 2 minutes. Use temps and times on cake mix box.

frosting:

3 C. salted butter
6-8 C. powdered sugar
vanilla to taste (around 4 tsp)
1-2 TB milk

whip it good. Makes a great, yummy, fluffy frosting!

I made these for the boys' birthdays. I didn't have whole milk for the cupcakes so I used 2%, it was still delicious but might have been better with whole milk. I cut the frosting recipe in thirds and it was perfect for 24 cupcakes (spreading it on, not decorating it like the picture). The frosting was soooooo good, I could eat it plain!
