Cotton Candy Cupcakes

Just like eating cotton candy at a summer fair!

Cupcakes:

• 2 ¾ cups flour
• 2 cup sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 2 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup nearly boiling water
• 1 cup milk
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp Vanilla

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
2. In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer sift together dry ingredients. Add oil, hot water, and milk and mix for 1 minute at medium speed. Add eggs, vanilla extract and vanilla bean and beat for another minute. Batter will be thin.
3. Use a ¼ measuring cup or ice cream scoop to fill cupcake tins. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick poked into a cupcake comes out clean.
4. While cupcakes cool make the frosting. 

 Frosting:

• 3 sticks of butter
• 6 cups of powdered sugar
• Cotton Candy syrup & a little milk until desired consistency and taste
