Sparkly Star of David Cupcakes

• 24 One-Bowl Chocolate Cupcakes (page 152) or White Cupcakes (page 154)
• Swiss Meringue Buttercream (page 304)
• 2 cups blue round candy sprinkles (nonpareils)

1. Use a serrated knife to trim top of each cupcake to make level.
2. Using an offset spatula, spread each cupcake with a smooth layer of buttercream.
3. When ready to serve, lay a six-sided star cookie cutter on top of a cupcake.
4. Using a small spoon, fill inside cutter completely with sprinkles in an even layer.
5. (For best results, do not overfill, as the star may lose its shape once the cutter is removed.)
6. Carefully lift cookie cutter, and repeat with remaining cupcakes.
