Ingredients
Scale
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 cup milk
2 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup green food coloring
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
Add the green food coloring and mix until the desired color is achieved.
Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full with the batter.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool before frosting as desired.

For a fun twist, add sprinkles to the batter before baking.
These cupcakes can be frosted with cream cheese frosting or any frosting of your choice.
