Notes

Hint: I like to set the unfrosted cupcakes on a wire rack to cool rather than in the hot pan. This helps to speed up the process to cool cupcakes.
If you would prefer, you can use a box cake mix rather than making cupcakes from scratch.
Store cupcakes in an airtight container on counter for up to three days.
