Ingredients
For the Cupcakes:
- 5 egg room temperature, large, whites
- ¾ cup buttermilk
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla bean paste
- ¾ cup butter softened, unsalted
- 1 ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 ½ cups cake flour
- 1 Tablespoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
For the frosting:
- 1 ½ cup butter softened, unsalted
- 4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste
- 3 Tablespoons milk
- 48 Candy eyes
Instructions
- For the cake, whisk together the egg whites, vanilla bean paste and 1/4 cup milk in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar for 2 minutes. Add in dry ingredients and mix until combined. Slowly add in egg mixture, beating until fully incorporated. Beat in the remaining 1/2 cup milk. Turn mixer on high and beat for 2 minutes.
- Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and bake in a 350 degree oven for 17-18 minutes, until set (will begin to lightly brown on edges). Remove and cool completely before frosting.
- For the frosting, beat butter for 5 minutes until pale in color. Add sugar, vanilla bean paste and milk. Beat an additional 5 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Pipe onto cupcakes by filling pastry bag and using tip 48, pipe "stripes" onto top of cupcakes. Add candy eyes. ENJOY!
Notes
- Storing: Keep your cooled and frosted cupcakes covered at room temperature. They taste best if eaten within 2 - 3 days.
- Be sure to beat the batter for 2 or 3 minutes in your stand mixer before baking. This gets everything incorporated and whips a bit of air into the cupcakes!
- If you can't find tiny candy eyeballs, you can use mini chocolate chips to make "eyes."
