Make sure you give everything a good stir with a spatula from the bottom to incorporate any bit that wasn't mixed.
3. Scoop the batter into your lined cupcake tin, make sure it's only filled ¾ of the way up because they will rise.
Bake for 20 minutes and let cool for about 45 minutes before frosting.
4. To make the frosting combine together all the frosting ingredients. Add the frosting in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes. Top with a fondant heart and or red sprinkles.
