- Make up vanilla mix according to the instructions on the packet. You will need the egg and water here. Leave the cupcakes to completely cool.
- While cupcakes cool make up buttercream icing: add soft butter and icing sugar and vanilla, and whisk until light and creamy, about 5 minutes.

- Cakes are ready eat and enjoy!
