Easy Cupcake Recipes & Why You’ll Love Them

June 14, 2018 by Kalie 2 Comments

Here at the Test Kitchen, we’ve noticed a disturbing trend. In terms of fantastic desserts, cupcakes just aren’t getting the love they deserve. That’s downright heartbreaking, because cupcakes bring something very special to the sweet world of desserts. With their bright, beautiful colors, and fantastically fun flavors, there is a tasty cupcake for every person, on every occasion. If you haven’t joined the cupcake fan club just yet, you’re in luck; today we’re talking about some easy cupcake recipes that I’m sure will change your mind!

Easy Cupcake Recipes for Potlucks & Parties:

Strawberry Patch Cupcakes

The first reason to join Team Cupcake is that they’re perfect for entertaining. The title of this section is slightly misleading because, the truth is, all cupcakes are perfect for a pass-around potluck or party dessert! The cupcake should be one of your staple dessert options because they’re perfect for sharing! Each of these easy cupcake recipes makes one to two dozen cupcakes, and that’s exactly what you need to please a crowd. When you need to feed a large group of people, you can go for something classic that everyone will love, like these Strawberry Patch Cupcakes! The sweet strawberry flavor is going to be a summertime favorite. And no one can turn down a Classic Vanilla Cupcake. I mean, chocolate might be a fan-favorite, but vanilla cupcakes will always have a special place in my heart. These more traditional flavors are a safe bet when trying to please a diverse group of people, and the simple decorating scheme is perfect for a yummy dessert in no time at all. They’re called “easy” cupcake recipes for a reason!

Easy Cupcake Recipes for the Seasons:

Our second reason for absolutely loving cupcakes is because they’re a dessert you can keep with you all year long. Is it summertime? Make these tropical Lemon Coconut Cupcakes! Plus, be sure to try these tasty Key Lime Pie Cupcakes, straight from the beaches of South Florida! The Autumn leaves are falling, so we’re making these Cinnamon Walnut Cupcakes as the perfect sweet treat! These Marshmallow Flower Cupcakes are perfect for spring, and winter means you’ll be enjoying our Winter Wonderland Cupcakes! No matter what time of year it is, just pair your favorite cake mix flavor with your favorite frosting, and you can mix and match the flavors for the perfect seasonal treat!

Not only do we have all the seasons covered, but we’ve got the holidays too! Santa Cupcakes for Christmas, Star Spangled Cupcakes for the Fourth of July. Our Witches’ Brew Cupcakes are perfect for your Halloween celebration, and your New Year’s party isn’t complete unless you’re serving our Champagne Cupcakes! The versatility of our easy cupcake recipes makes them the perfect dessert all year long!

Easy Cupcake Recipes for Fun:

If you’re reading this, I’m assuming you love desserts. And if you love desserts, it almost goes without saying that you enjoy having a little fun every now and then.  Dessert people are good people! Well, lucky for you, cupcakes wrote the book on “fun with desserts”! The third reason these easy cupcake recipes should be your new favorites, is because they’re perfect for having a little fun in the kitchen. You can get creative with your flavors and decorations! Our Twinkie Cupcakes are an easy at-home twist of a childhood favorite, and these Fudge Filled Cupcakes are loaded with a sweet chocolatey surprise.

If you’re looking to get a little artsy, try these Corn on the Cob Cupcakes at your next cookout! These Ice Cream Cone Cupcakes are the definition of adorable, and they’re a perfect treat for the kids. And have you ever heard of a savory cupcake? Try these Chocolate BACON & Sea Salt Cupcakes! That’s right. Bacon. The options are endless! These cupcakes can be as tasty and as unique as you are creative.

So…why are cupcakes worth loving? Because they are a perfectly versatile dessert for all year long, and the perfect dessert for feeding a crowd in a fun, creative, and unique way every single time! The next time you’re looking for a delicious dessert option, remember the cupcake! Give these easy cupcake recipes a try and, after one bite, you’ll be looking for reasons to serve up dessert.

    I was trying to make your key lime cupcakes but none of the grocery stores carry the lime pie filling? Is there anything else to try?
