Cupid cakes are a classic Valentine's Day treat that are both delicious and easy to make.

In this guide, we will walk you through every step of the process, from choosing the right ingredients to decorating them with precision.

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar

• 1/2 cup milk
• Red food coloring

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

4. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

6. Alternately add the dry ingredients and the milk to the wet ingredients, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
7. Add red food coloring to the batter and mix until well combined.
8. Fill the prepared muffin cups about 2/3 full.
9. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
10. Let the cakes cool completely before decorating.

Decorating

Once your Cupid cakes are cooled, you can decorate them with a variety of toppings. Here are a few ideas:

• White chocolate ganache
• Pink frosting
• Red sprinkles
• Heart-shaped candies
• Edible glitter

Get creative and have fun with your decorations! The possibilities are endless.

Tips

• For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate ganache.
• If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
• To make your decorations more secure, use a toothpick to secure them in place.
• Let your cakes cool completely before decorating, or the frosting will melt.
• Store your Cupid cakes in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect Cupid cakes that will be the star of any Valentine's Day celebration.

So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
