Making these Sprinkle Heart Valentine’s Day Cupcakes is straightforward. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
2. Make Heart Batter: In a bowl, mix 1 cup of flour, ¼ cup of sugar, ½ cup of softened butter, 1 egg, and red food coloring until you achieve a smooth batter. Set aside.
3. Prepare Cupcake Batter: In another bowl, combine the remaining flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and mix well.
4. Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining egg, milk, and vanilla extract.
5. Mix Batter: Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
6. Fill Cupcake Liners: Pour a tablespoon of the regular cupcake batter into each cupcake liner, then add a tablespoon of the red heart batter in the center.
7. Bake: Place the cupcake tin in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Cool: Once baked, remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Frost the Cupcakes: Once the cupcakes are completely cool, pipe buttercream frosting on top of each cupcake.
10. Decorate: Sprinkle assorted sprinkles on top of the frosting for a festive touch.
