Happy St Patrick's day! I didn't drink today, trying to be a responsible adult and limit my drinking. But it doesn't mean I can't have fun. Cupcakes anyone?
The cake mix was okay, but the buttercream frosting came out amazing. Top with Lucky Charms cereal and we got a mini celebration.
Buttercream Frosting:
1 cup softened butter, room temperature
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
5 tbsp heavy whipping cream
4 cups powdered sugar
In a stand mixer, of in a large bowl with a hand mixer, cream butter with vanilla extract and salt. Add whipping cream and mix slowly. Add powdered sugar in 8 parts while mixing. Whip until smooth.
I scooped the frosting into a zip top bag and cut off one of the bottom corners. Makeshift piping bag! Pipe onto cupcakes and top with Lucky Charms cereal. Enjoy!
