Surprise filling!

Ingredients Cupcakes: – Cake flour – Sugar – Baking soda – Salt – Cocoa – Vegetable oil – Buttermilk – Egg – Vanilla extract – White distilled vinegar – Green food coloring

Ingredients Cream Cheese Frosting: – Cream cheese – Unsalted butter – Powdered sugar – Sprinkles for filling

Whisk the cake flour, granulated sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa in a medium-sized bowl.

Use an electric mixer on low speed to mix the oil, buttermilk, eggs, vanilla, and vinegar.

Slowly combine the dry ingredients with the wet. Continue to mix on medium-low until everything is mixed well.

Add the green food color and blend it into the batter until you reach the shade of green that you want.

Fill the muffin tin cups until they are a little over half full. This ends up being about 1/4 cup for each muffin tin.

Bake for 12-15 minutes at 350 degrees F.

To create the filling, remove a small section of the middle of the cupcake by using a piping bag tip or a spoon.

Fill the center with sprinkles and replace the removed cake, trimming the bottom as needed to make it fit.

To make the frosting, beat the butter with an electric or stand mixer on medium-high speed.

Add the cream cheese and continue to beat until smooth. Add the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time.

Put the frosting into a piping bag and pipe it onto the cupcake tops.

Add desired sprinkles to the frosted tops and serve.

Bite for a magical surprise! Perfect for unicorn parties, St. Patrick's Day, or whenever!
