Rainbow Unicorn Cupcakes

For the Cupcakes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a muffin pan or use liners.

Combine flour, sugar, pudding mix, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk dry ingredients together.

Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to cream butter for 1 to 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add cream cheese and mix until combined. Then add the vanilla and mix well. Add the egg whites and mix on low.

Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Slowly add the vanilla creamer and mix on medium for 1 minute.

Divide the birthday rainbow cupcakes recipe batter evenly between three small bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and stir. Add more food coloring until you reach the desired color.

Use a spoon to add spoonfuls of alternating colors into the muffin tins. Fill about 2/3 full. This will make tie dye cupcakes from scratch. You can use a toothpick to swirl the colors if desired.

Bake for 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely before frosting.

For the Frosting

In a large bowl or stand mixer, cream the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add vanilla extract.

Slowly add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time. Add a bit of milk between each cup of sugar. Beat for 1 minute or until creamy.

Separate the frosting into three small bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl and stir. Add more food coloring as needed until it's the desired color. Place one color of frosting in each of the three small piping bags. Place the three smaller bags into the large piping bag or connect to the tri-piping tip.

Pipe the frosting onto each cupcake. Add the unicorn ears and horns. Sprinkle with white edible glitter if desired.
