Pink Heart Cupcakes

As you can probably tell I love Valentine’s Day, it’s been so fun baking with my favorite color pink! And these Pink Heat Cupcakes just scream Valentine’s Day with a pink vanilla cupcake, icing heart decorations, and SPRINKLES!

I started with my favorite vanilla cupcake recipe,and transformed it a bit, adding  pink food coloring to make them pretty and pink. I topped them off with a delicious mound of vanilla butter cream frosting and of course, SPRINKLES!
