The Perfect Cupcake (using a mix)

This is my all time favorite, go to "recipe" for cupcakes. You can use this "trick" to box cake mix taste like "from scratch"

The Perfect Cupcake (using a mix)
(click here for printable recipe of cupcakes & Butter Cream Frosting)

1 box mix (any flavor) - but get the good kind, Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker

3 Large Eggs

1/2 cup butter, melted (use butter not margarine....trust me on this!)

1 cup of water

Directions

Melt the butter in the microwave.

Add cake mix, eggs and water to the butter in large bowl.

Mix on low for 1 min. Then mix on high for 1 min.

You will be amazed that your batter is nice and thick and creamy - not thin and runny like it is when you follow the box instructions.

Fill cupcake papers - tip: use an icecream scooper! - One scoop is just the right amount per cupcake!

Pop them in the oven on 350 for 20 minutes.

Let cool.
