So when i was thinking of what recipe i should share with you today, i thought it would be the perfect. But cupcake size. We start by making a white cake mix according to the package instructions, except rather than adding the water, we add the same amount of champagne or asti spumante. If you want, toss in some gold decorating sugar like i used to in my catering days. You can find it in the baking section. Itll make these nice and sparkly. Now we spoon the batter silver liners, and into the oven they go. While theyre baking, we make an icing which is simply some softened butter beaten with powdered sugar, vanilla and a splash more champagne. Once they cool, we slather or pipe them with icing and finish them with more gold sugar. Not only do these look fun and festive, the taste is crazy good. You see the creaminess of the icing paired with the fluffy cupcake and a hint of the bubbly makes them a real treat.
