If you did not feel like making the frosting from scratch you can easily use a canned frosting. This would cut out a step and would make it easier and less time consuming. Here are another few recipes that my daughter enjoys too. These red velvet cupcake, unicorn bars and confetti cookies are definitely favorites for the little girl in our home.

Happy Baking!
