Ingredients

For the cupcakes:

  • 1 box Funfetti Cake Mix 15.25 oz
  • 1 box Vanilla Pudding Mix 3.4 oz box
  • 1/2 cup vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the frosting:

  • 1 1/2 cups salted butter softened
  • 4 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 Tablespoons milk
  • Easter sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Line 2 muffin tins with cupcake liners. I needed 20 cupcake liners for this recipe.
  • In a large bowl combine the cake mix and pudding mix.
  • Add in the Greek yogurt, milk, eggs, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
  • Mix well for 2-3 minutes or until the batter is mostly smooth.
  • Use a 1/4 cup cookie scoop and scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
  • To make the buttercream frosting place the butter in a large mixing bowl. Beat on medium high speed until smooth. Add in the powdered sugar a half cup at a time until it is all added.
  • Beat on medium high speed for one minute.
  • Add in the vanilla and milk and mix at medium speed for 1 minute.
  • Place the frosting in a piping bag and pipe onto cupcakes. Sprinkle with Easter sprinkles.
