Cotton Candy Cupcakes
Not only are these bright and fun just like a cloud of cotton candy, but they taste just like cotton candy! We used cotton candy flavoring and food coloring to make these cupcakes perfect for a birthday party, after school celebration or any ole reason to have something yum!

- 1 1/2 Sticks softened salted butter
- 2/3 Cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoons Lorann cotton candy flavoring

Materials:
- Large mixing bowl
- Baking cups
- Cupcake pan
- Mixing bowl
- Hand or stand mixer
- Measuring cups
- 3 small mixing bowls
- 4 decorating bags
- Decorating tip kit-large star tip
Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
- Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
- In a large mixing bowl beat together your butter and sugar until it has a whipped texture (about 1 minute).
- Mix in your eggs and milk.
- Now mix in your flour and baking soda.
- Once your batter is mixed, mix in your cotton candy flavoring.
- Separate your batter into 3 separate bowls, add 2 drops of food coloring to each bowl to make 3 separate colors.
- Scoop in 1 Tablespoon of each color batter to each baking cup.
- Bake for 20 minutes then let cool.
- While your cupcakes are cooling, separate your frosting to 3 separate bowls, and add 2 drops of food coloring to each bowl to make 3 separate colors.

- Remove the ring from your coupler base and drop the coupler into a empty decorating bag, cut the tip off the bag, and place your star tip onto the coupler, then place the ring back onto the bag.
