Cinnamon Roll Cupcakes

These cupcakes taste just like a cinnamon roll, and disappear just as fast!

Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees and lining your cupcake pan with liners. This recipe makes about 20-22 regular sized cupcakes.

Cake:

2/3 cup butter at room temperature

2 eggs

2 1/2 cups all purpose flour

2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup packed brown sugar (put aside in a dish)

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 3/4 cups granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

1 1/4 cups milk

Frosting:

3/4 cup butter (room temp)

6 cups powdered sugar

Up to 1/3 cup milk (add slowly teaspoon by teaspoon until you get the consistency you like)

2 teaspoons vanilla

Start by mixing butter until light and fluffy, then slowly mix in the sugar and other ingredients one at a time. Fill the cupcake holders 1/2-3/4 full and sprinkle the reserved brown sugar over the mixture. Bake at 350 for 15-16 minutes - cool completely, top with frosting and a dash of cinnamon - enjoy!
