Magnolia Vanilla Cupcakes Pt 2

Day 2 of cupcake trial, and the ol' Magnolia's are definately growing on me..
I'm really enjoying their subtle flavouring, and with sprinkles, they are the best..
K tried the ol' cupcake suprise tonight, and said it was heaven in a mouthful (well 3- that's all it took!)
Must expand this idea some more.

Magnolia Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting

Magnolia Bakery recipe.
I only used 3/4 of the stated sugar quantity- and they turned out plenty sweet once the frosting was on.
The cake was nice and fluffy- good texture, density and moistness.
Frosting was luscious and creamy.
VERY reminiscent of childhood birthday parties.
For a vanilla on vanilla cupcake- these are good, but my personal preference is for something more flavoursome.
