White Chocolate Cranberry Cupcakes

Fluffy and soft vanilla cupcakes studded with tart cranberries, topped with a decadent white chocolate buttercream frosting, and simple homemade sugared cranberries! Holiday baking has never been more delicious!

As impressive as massive layer cakes are, I definitely prefer cupcakes. They’re so cute, easy to decorate, easily feed a crowd, and are actually easily freeze-able!

This recipe marries a few great holiday flavors… warm vanilla, sweet white chocolate, and tart cranberry.

Plus the topping of sugared cranberries takes these cupcakes from good to great!

Sugared cranberries are actually a lot easier to make than you may think, and they have that show-stopping winter-y look.
