Melt In Your Mouth Vanilla Cupcakes Chocolate Frosting


My daughter was bored & wanted to bake- she found these recipes 'somewhere online from two different places' and combined them. They were fabulous! We decided that next time we'd put colored sprinkles on before the frosting sets.

Steps


For cupcakes: preheat oven to 325.
Line cupcake tin with cupcake papers.
Cream butter until light and fluffy.

Microwave on high for 45 to 60 seconds or until the chocolate is softened.
