Ingredients
  

Cupcakes

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 1 c buttermilk
  • 1/2 c vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 24 rainbow cupcake liners

Frosting and Decoration

  • 2 cans vanilla frosting 16 oz each
  • 1 disposable frosting bag 16 inch
  • 1 1M star frosting tip
  • rainbow sprinkles
  • 24 sucker sticks 4 inch
  • 24 Super Mario Bros. cupcake toppers printed and cut out

Instructions
 

Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven and line tins:

    Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Arrange 24 cupcake liners in two muffin tins.
  • Mix batter and bake cupcakes:

    In an electric mixer, blend cake mix, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and eggs. Using an ice cream scoop, divide the batter evenly among the 24 liners, filling each roughly 2/3 full. Bake for 15-17 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Take the cupcakes out of the pans and let them cool fully on a wire rack.

Frosting and Decoration

  • Pipe frosting and add sprinkles:

    Fit a frosting bag with a 1M star tip and fill it with vanilla frosting. Pipe frosting onto each cooled cupcake. Immediately sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles.
  • Attach toppers and serve:

    Attach a sucker stick to the back of each cupcake topper with tape. Push a topper into the center of each cupcake. Serve and enjoy.
