Ingredients

For Prosecco Cupcakes

  • 1 box of White Cake Mix
  • 3 eggs double-check how many eggs your cake mix suggests and go by that
  • 1/2 cup oil double-check amount called for by your cake mix recipe and use that
  • 1 cup Prosecco we are replacing the water called out on your boxed mix directions with Prosecco

For Prosecco Buttercream

Instructions

For Cupcakes:

  • Preheat oven based on the directions on your boxed cake mix.
  • Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • Make the cake based on the box, however use Prosecco in place of the water. 
  • Fill the muffin cups about 1/2 full. 
  • Bake according to the box (usually around 25 minutes).

Remove cupcakes to a cooling rack and cool completely. For Frosting:

  • In a large bowl, cream the butter with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add in Prosecco starting with 1 tsp at a time and checking for flavor. (Add more as needed - probably around 5 tsp total).
  • Add the powdered sugar about 1 cup at a time, mixing by hand so it doesn't blow everywhere then with the mixer to get it really smooth.
  • Add powdered sugar until you get the taste and consistency you like (for me it was about 4 cups). 

Notes

Use whatever brand of cake mix you like, just follow their recipe and swap out the water for Prosecco.
