Hello all! My name is Coretta and I am stopping by from my blog  This Little Mommy Stays Home! I am an enthusiastic stay at home Mom to two beautiful young girls who keep me on my toes at all times! I started blogging last year about my wonderful family, my quest to become a labor Doula and the process of starting a small business. My girls and I enjoy cooking and baking together so we are always trying different recipes and putting our own stamp on them. I found this recipe to be very easy which is great because the girls can be more involved. I also love using bananas to replace sugar when possible! Hope you enjoy and as always have fun when you bake!

Sweetheart Cupcakes

 

Cupcake Ingredients:
1/2 cup softened butter
2 Ripe bananas 
2 eggs 
2 tsp. vanilla extract 
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour 
1/2 tsp. baking powder 
1/4 tsp. salt 
2/3 cup cold milk 
Red food coloring

Frosting:

4 cups Confectioners Sugar 
4 tablespoons softened butter 
2 tablespoons vanilla 
Red Food Coloring

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. We used a metal nonstick heart shaped muffin pan. Since we could not use cupcake liners I greased each heart with butter and dusted with flour. Cream butter and bananas. Add eggs one at a time until batter is creamy, then stir in vanilla. In a separate bowl combine dry ingredients then slowly add to wet mixture and stir in milk. We added 4 drops of red food coloring to turn the batter pink. Now wasn't that easy?
