Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup marshmallow fluff
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Sprinkles for decoration (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
Make the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the milk and vanilla extract.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Bake the Cupcakes: Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
Prepare the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, combine the marshmallow fluff, powdered sugar, softened butter, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
Frost the Cupcakes: Once the cupcakes are completely cool, use a piping bag or a knife to spread the marshmallow frosting on top of each cupcake. Add sprinkles if desired.
Serve: Enjoy your delicious marshmallow frosted cupcakes at room temperature.
