Delightful vanilla cupcakes infused with candy corn for a festive autumn treat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup candy corn, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. Cream together the sugar and butter until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
