Champagne frosted cupcakes bring in the New Year with sparkle! It’s easy to dress up vanilla or strawberry cupcakes with just a little bit of this frosting. Turn a few of your martini glasses upside down to show off your creations! Below is the easy recipe. Don’t forget a little bit of edible glitter to ring in 2010!
For those who don’t drink alcohol, you can purchase non-alcoholic Champagne at Whole Foods, as well as Sam’s Club.
