Princess Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. Make and bake cake as directed on box for cupcakes. Cool completely. Frost cupcakes with frosting.
• To make flowers, unroll and remove paper from 18 Betty Crocker Fruit Roll-Ups snacks. Cut 4 circles out of each snack using 2-inch round cutter. Using 3 circles for each flower, pinch each circle in the middle, and twist to create petals. Place petals on top of cupcake next to one another to create flower. Repeat for each cupcake.

Beat the sugar, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla with an electric mixer in a large bowl until it has thickened slightly and is lighter in color. Gradually beat in the flour mixture on low speed until just incorporated. Slowly pour in the hot milk, beating until just combined.
