- Distribute evenly into muffin cups, filling about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
- While cupcakes are cooling, prepare frosting. In large bowl, with mixer at medium-low speed, beat sugar, butter, vanilla, and 4 tablespoons milk until blended. Beat until light and fluffy on medium speed, occasionally scraping bowl. Once frosting is mixed, add a few squirts of red food coloring to create the pink color!
