Author: Katherine and Sarah Hatfield
Recipe type: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
- 12 dairy-free chocolate cupcakes (we used this recipe)
- Dairy-free vanilla frosting (we used this recipe)
- 12 teaspoons rainbow sprinkles (we used Betty Crocker Rainbow Jimmies)
- Gold cake dust or gold or yellow colored sprinkles (we used Luxe Cake Gold Highlighter Luxury Cake Dust)
Instructions
- Bake the cupcakes according to the recipe directions, and let them cool completely. Prepare the frosting while the cupcakes cool.
- Use the wide end of a pastry tip to remove a "core" from a cupcake. Cut only about halfway down so the sprinkles don't come out the bottom of the cupcake. Fill the resulting hole with 1 teaspoon sprinkles. Replace the piece of cupcake on top of the sprinkles. Repeat with the remaining cupcakes.
- Frost the cupcakes.
- Using a small, clean brush, gently dust the tops of the cupcakes with the gold cake dust, or sprinkle with gold or yellow sprinkles.
