1

Gather the ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients for your rainbow cupcakes. You will need flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla extract, milk, food coloring in various colors, baking powder, and salt.

2

Prepare the cupcake batter

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.

3

Divide and color the batter

Divide the cupcake batter evenly into separate bowls, depending on how many colors you want in your cupcakes. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl and mix well until the desired colors are achieved. Use gel food coloring for more vibrant colors.

4

Create the rainbow layers

Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. Starting with one color, spoon a small amount of batter into each liner. Repeat with the remaining colors, layering the batter. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the colors together slightly for a marbled effect.

5

Bake the cupcakes

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the muffin tin in the oven and bake for approximately 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.

6

Decorate the cupcakes

Once the cupcakes have cooled, you can frost them with your favorite icing. You can use a plain white icing or get creative with different colored frostings. Add some sprinkles or edible decorations for extra pizzazz. Serve and enjoy!
