- Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Cream Cheese Frosting
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Frost the Cupcakes
