Candy Corn Cupcakes

Source: inspired from the web and OurBestBites

1 white cake mix

2 eggs

1 cup sour cream

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup vegetable oil

Garnish: candy corns and orange sprinkles

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line cupcake pan with paper liners.

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl until incorporated. Scrape sides of bowl and then beat on medium-high speed for 3 minutes.

Divide batter in half and color one half orange and the other half yellow. Wilton has color gels that are really vivid. You can find them at craft stores.

Fill paper liners with about 1-2 Tablespoons of orange batter. Then top with 1-2 Tablespoons of yellow batter. Bake according to cake mix package directions - about 15-18 minutes. Cool cupcakes and frost with your favorite frosting and garnish with a candy corn and sprinkles. Makes 18 cupcakes.

Use your favorite frosting or this is what I used:

Buttercream Frosting

1 cup butter

4 cups powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup heavy whipping cream

In a mixing bowl, cream butter until fluffy. Add sugar and continue creaming until well blended. Add salt, vanilla, and whipping cream. Blend on low speed until moistened. Beat at high speed until frosting is fluffy.
