Expert Tips

For very white-on-white cupcakes, use Betty Crocker® Whipped whipped cream frosting instead of the vanilla frosting.

If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

These were pretty good, but not as good as expected. You have to put extra rum and almond if you want to be able to taste it in the cupcake after you bake the cupcake. The batter was VERY flavourful before baking, but afterwords nothing really special than a normal cupcake. Still enjoyed it though.
