Ingredients

For the Cupcakes:

Quantity	Ingredients
1 ½ cups	All-purpose flour
½ tsp	Baking powder
¼ tsp	Baking soda
¼ tsp	Salt
60 gms	Britannia The Laughing Cow Cream Cheese, softened to room temperature
¼ cup	Butter, softened
1 cup	Granulated sugar
2	Large eggs, at room temperature
1 tsp	Pure vanilla extract
½ cup	Buttermilk, at room temperature

For the Frosting

Quantity	Ingredients
120 gms	Britannia The Laughing Cow Cream Cheese, softened to room temperature
½ cup	Butter, softened
1/4 tsp	Salt
3 ½ cups	Powdered sugar

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Line a standard muffin pan with 12 cupcake liners to ensure easy removal.
In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking soda, and 1/4 tsp salt. Set aside.
Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the softened Britannia The Laughing Cow Cream Cheese until smooth and free of lumps. Add 1/4 cup softened butter, 1 cup sugar, 2 eggs, and 1 tsp vanilla extract. Mix on medium speed until smooth and well combined.
With the mixer on low, alternately add the dry mixture and 1/2 cup buttermilk, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; avoid over-mixing to keep the batter light.
Divide the batter evenly among the liners, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean. The tops should remain pale; overbaking will dry them out.
Transfer the cupcakes to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely before frosting.
For the frosting, beat 120 gms Britannia The Laughing Cow Cream Cheese until smooth. Add 1/2 cup butter and 1/4 tsp salt, mixing until creamy. Gradually add 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar, one cup at a time, and mix until smooth. If needed, incorporate 1 tsp milk or half-and-half for a pipeable consistency.
Fill a piping bag fitted with your favourite tip and frost the cupcakes. Decorate with sprinkles or your desired topping.
