Dessert - One-Bowl Funfetti Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting recipes

Sprinkles cupcakes have been featured on Oprah as one of her favorite things and, having eaten more than a few while I was in California last year, I would definitely have to agree! Making red velvet cupcakes from scratch is so easy with our step by step instructions.

Sprinkles Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

Sprinkles Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting
This delicious cream cheese frosting recipe came with the Sprinkles Pumpkin Cupcake mix that I purchased from the Williams-Sonoma catalogue, and baked over the holidays this year. Sprinkles cupcakes have been featured on Oprah as one of her favorite things and, having eaten more than a few while I was in California last year, I would definitely have to agree! I have made other cream cheese frostings before but this one was the best in my opinion. Although it is featured with the pumpkin cupcake, I think it would pair equally well with a spice cake. This recipe generated enough to very generously cover 12 cupcakes. Use the best cream cheese, butter, cinnamon, and vanilla you have. I hope you enjoy it as much we did!

  • 8 ounces cold cream cheese (recommend Philadelphia full fat, do not use fat free!)

  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

  • 3 3/4 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla

How to cook:
  1. Using the flat beater in your electric mixer, beat cream cheese, unsalted butter, salt, and cinnamon on medium low speed until smooth and creamy (approximately 2 or 3 minutes).
  2. Reduce speed to low and gradually add the confectioners' sugar, beating until incorporated.
  3. Add the vanilla; beat just until mixed.
  4. Do not overbeat or the frosting will incorporate too much air. It should be creamy and dense like ice cream.
  5. Add milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, if frosting is not of a spreadable consistency.

  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened

  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest

How to cook:
  1. First, make the cupcakes
  2. Heat oven to 350°F. Line 24 standard-size muffin cups (two 12-cup pans) with paper liners.
  3. In a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt until well combined. Add eggs, oil, milk and vanilla; beat with an electric hand mixer or in the stand mixer with a paddle attachment on medium speed until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Use a spatula to gently fold in sprinkles (if you stir them in too much, the colors will start to bleed).
  4. Divide cupcake batter evenly among paper liners so each cup is about 3/4 full. Bake 15-20 minutes or until cupcakes are baked through with lightly golden, domed tops. Cool cupcakes in pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  5. Meanwhile, make the frosting: In a large bowl using an electric hand mixer or in the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat butter and cream cheese on high speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in 2 cups powdered sugar, milk, lemon juice and lemon zest until smooth. Beat in just enough of remaining 1 cup powdered sugar until frosting is thick but spreadable. (If the frosting seems too thin to pipe or spread, refrigerate covered for 30 minutes to 1 hour.)
  6. Pipe or spread frosting on top of cupcakes. Top with more sprinkles, if desired. Store frosted cupcakes in refrigerator up to 2 days.

  • Serving Size: 1 serving
How to cook:
  1. Cupcakes
  2. Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  3. Using your paddle attachment on your stand mixer, beat together the butter and sugar and mix on medium for 3-5 minutes. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.
  4. Then add in oil, egg, vanilla, and vinegar all separately and mix about 30 seconds to 1 minute each.
  5. In a separate medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa, baking powder and soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly.
  6. Turn your stand mixer back onto a low speed and slowly add ½ of the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix until combined. Add in buttermilk until combined. Mix in remaining dry ingredients. Mix until thoroughly combined, but don't over mix. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.
  7. Add in black food coloring until entire batter is grey/black (you may want to add another drop or so depending on your brand, but don't add too much).
  8. Let the batter sit while you prepare the pans. This allows the batter to rise and double the leavening process.
  9. Prepare cupcake tins with liners. Use the 6 center wells + the middle side well for a total of 7 wells. This is a great time, if you still have it, to do some dishes. Clean as you go!
  10. After 10-15 minutes of resting the batter, divide batter between 7 wells, 2/3 filled (about 3 Tbsp each). Add about 1-2 tbsp of water to the empty 5 wells.
  11. Place the cupcakes into the oven. Bake for 20-22 minutes. Check with a toothpick until it comes out clean.
  12. Take cakes out and cool in the pan. Then remove from pans to cool on a cooling rack.
  13. Cream Cheese Frosting
  14. Using your paddle attachment cream the butter by itself for 2 minutes. This helps to create a fluffy texture. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.
  15. Add in cream cheese and mix on medium for 3-4 minutes. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.
  16. Add in the vanilla and stir until well combined.
  17. Add in powdered sugar slowly. Mix until thoroughly combined and smooth. Allow to continue to mix for 2-3 minutes to let it fluff up. Scrape sides of bowl as needed.
  18. Add in food coloring and mix until everything is black.
  19. Assembling
  20. Take a cooled cupcake, pipe or scoop on frosting. Add sprinkles and serve.
