Of course, for me my baking has to also be about visual appeal. So when considering the buttercream for these beauties (I already knew the cupcakes had to be chocolatey!), I wanted to hold onto the sweet springtime colours of mini eggs.

Five: To make the buttercream frosting mix together the icing sugar, softened butter, vanilla extract, and milk with an electric whisk until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is still a bit stiff, add a touch more milk.
