Creating these delightful Churro Cupcakes is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined.
6. Fill Cupcake Liners: Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
7. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
9. Prepare Topping: In a small bowl, combine the remaining ½ cup of sugar with 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.
10. Coat Cupcakes: Brush the top of each cooled cupcake with melted butter, then dip or sprinkle generously with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
