Birthday Brownie Cupcakes


Aren't these just the cutest? And not only are they cute, but they have the best of both worlds. Chocolate. Vanilla. Oh, and sprinkles. Lots of colorful sprinkles. I recently made these for my boss' birthday and they were devoured within minutes by the office. Which was unfortunate, because I only snagged one of them. But luckily for me, and you, these are ridiculously easy to make, and the perfect alternative to birthday cake, cookies, or brownies, because they are all three in one! Does someone special have a birthday coming up? These are sure to make their day extra special. 


Birthday Brownie Cupcakes

Ingredients:
  • 1 box brownie mix
  • 1/2 box white cake mix
  • eggs 
  • water
  • plain flavored oil (vegetable or canola)
  • rainbow sprinkles

Prepare the brownie mix and 1/2 of the white cake mix according to the box directions in separate bowls. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Also prepare 2 cupcake tins with cupcake liners.


I used a small cookie scoop to scoop 1 tbsp. brownie mix into the bottom of each cupcake liner. Then clean the cookie scoop and add 1 tbsp. of the white cake mix on top of the brownie mix in each cup.

Sprinkle some rainbow sprinkles on top of each cupcake and bake in the oven 20-23 minutes until cooked through. You will know if you insert a toothpick in the center and it comes out clean.
