Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350F 175C and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt

Set aside

In another bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition

Stir in the vanilla extract

Gradually add the dry ingredients mixture to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients

Mix until just combined

Divide the batter in half

Leave one half plain and color the other half with red food coloring to make it red

Fill each cupcake liner with a spoonful of plain batter and then a spoonful of red batter, creating a layered effect

Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean

Allow them to cool completely

In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the frosting

Adjust the consistency if needed by adding more powdered sugar or milk

Frost the cooled cupcakes with a swirl of frosting

Place a small marshmallow on top of each cupcake for Santas hat, then use a small amount of frosting to secure a red candy-coated chocolate candy as Santas nose and two white candy-coated chocolate candies as Santas eyes

Use black decorating gel to create pupils in Santas eyes and a mouth to complete the Santa face

Enjoy your adorable Santa Cupcakes
