Expert Tips for Perfect Valentine's Day Cupcakes
- For extra moist cupcakes, use whole milk instead of low-fat.
- Don't overmix the batter; overmixing can lead to tough cupcakes.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Get creative with your decorations! Use sprinkles, chocolate shavings, or other Valentine's Day themed candies.
