Instructions:
Oven Setup: Begin by heating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners.
Mix the Basics: In a large bowl, blend the cake mix, water, oil, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
Add the Fun: Gently fold the cotton candy into the batter until it’s evenly dispersed.
Fill ‘Em Up: Scoop the batter into the liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
Bake: Pop them in the oven for 18-20 minutes. They’re done when a toothpick comes out clean from the center.
Cool Down: Allow the cupcakes to cool on a wire rack until they reach room temperature.
Make Frosting: In a different bowl, whip the butter until creamy. Gradually mix in the powdered sugar, then the cream, until the frosting is fluffy.
Decorate: Spoon the frosting into a piping bag and artistically swirl it onto each cupcake.
Final Touch: Top each cupcake with a piece of cotton candy to captivate and charm.
