Ingredients

For cupcakes:

  • 1 box white cake mix
  • 1 c. whole milk
  • 1/2 c. sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 6 tbsp. unsalted butter melted
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tbsp. cinnamon
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 c. cookie butter

For cookie butter buttercream:

  • 1/2 c. unsalted butter softened
  • 1 1/4 c. cookie butter or Biscoff spread
  • 3 c. powdered sugar
  • 3-4 tbsp. heavy cream

Instructions

For cupcakes:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together cake mix, whole milk, sour cream, butter, eggs, cinnamon, and vanilla.
  • Line 24 regular-sized muffin cups with paper liners, and fill them halfway with batter.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
  • Remove to wire racks to cool completely.
  • Using a spoon or cookie scoop, scoop a 1-inch ball out of the center of each cupcake. Set aside for another use (cake balls, maybe?).
  • Spoon a rounded teaspoonful of cookie butter into the center of each cupcake.

For cookie butter buttercream:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat butter and cookie butter until smooth.
  • Add powdered sugar, beating until smooth.
  • Add heavy cream, one tablespoon at a time, beating until frosting is light and fluffy. It should be thick, but fluffy and spreadable.
  • Pipe or spread onto cupcakes.
