Steps
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Beat 1/3 cups unsalted butter, softened and granulated sugar (3/4 cup) together on medium-high speed for 3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
Add 2 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Mix in few drops of vanilla essence.
Add pinch of pink food color to the batter and mix until the color is fully incorporated and even.
Whisk together all-purpose flour (1 1/2 cups), baking powder (1/2 tsp) in a separate bowl.
In another bowl, stir together whole milk (1/2 cup) and sour cream (1/4 cup).
Add the flour mixture and milk mixture to the butter mixture in alternating additions — flour, milk, flour, milk, flour — mixing gently between each.
Divide batter evenly among the liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18–19 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let cupcakes rest in the tin for 30 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before frosting.
Make pink buttercream:
Beat butter, softened (1/2 cup) on medium speed for 5 minutes until creamy.
Add powdered sugar, sifted (2 1/2 cups) gradually, mixing on low.
Add 3 tablespoons heavy cream (3 tbsp), few drops of vanilla essence, then beat on high for 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
Add pinch of pink food color a little at a time until you reach your desired pink shade.
Frost and serve:
Pipe or spread the pink buttercream onto the cooled cupcakes.
Top with sprinkles, edible pearls, or fresh berries if you like.
Serve and enjoy!
