    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

    To make the cupcakes, place the cake mix in a mixing bowl.

    Melt the butter in the microwave and mix it into the cake batter.
  • 4
    Add the milk to the mixture, whisking well.
  • 5
    Add each egg, one at a time, whisking well after each addition.

    Prepare your cupcake pans with cupcake papers. This makes 24, so you may have to do it in batches.

    Once cupcakes are cooled, you can frost them. I added sprinkles to some of mine.

    The frosting would also be great with some lemon zest or you could add some food coloring so they have a little pizzaz! The possibilities are endless!
