Traditional Vanilla and Chocolate With A Twist! - Sweet Saturday

Happy weekend y'all! I hope you guys had a fabulous week and are ready for another Sweet Saturday coming your way! Last night I was at the UCF Football game and the games are always fun no matter what, but we won which only made it better! Tonight I am watching, of course, the Alabama vs. Mississippi State game which is a huge game and as we speak they are whooping butt so that's good! Hopefully we will bring it home for a big win!
 
The title of this post is the traditional vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting but the twist is, is that this frosting tastes SUPER delicious. It tastes almost like chocolate whipped cream and is about 100 times better than the canned frosting you buy at the store! Now the gluten-free vanilla cupcake mix is what is also so great. I found it at the Fresh Market and it is super good, however, if you cant find it then any vanilla mix or recipe will work! This recipe was super easy so let me know if you try it!

Frosting Ingredients:
5 cups confectioners sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
1 stick of butter
2 teaspoons of vanilla
9 tablespoons of milk or heavy whipping cream

Frosting Directions:
Place confectioners sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and butter in mixer and mix on low speed.
Add vanilla and milk as it mixes for about 3 minutes. Then you can frost your cupcakes and enjoy!
