Funfetti Cupcakes

Happy Memorial Day, THANK YOU to all our men and women out there serving our country. I truly appreciate it! God Bless you and your families.

As soon as I saw these sprinkles I bought them, but wasn’t sure what I would use them for. I then decided they would be before for funfetti cupcakes for a BBQ on Memorial Day.

Funfetti Cupcakes (From: Amber’s Delectable Delights)

• 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup sugar
• 3 large egg whites
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Put liners in cupcake pan, I got 12 cupcakes, but could of got more if I wanted.

In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir together and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg whites to the bowl and beat until combined. Add in the vanilla and almond extracts and mix until incorporated. Mix in the dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until incorporated. Fold in the sprinkles with a spatula.

Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean about 20 minutes. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost once cooled as desired.
