Churro Cupcakes
  1. Make cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350° and line two muffin tins with 15 cupcake liners. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla. Add to dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Divide batter evenly among liners, filling ¾ full, then sprinkle tops with cinnamon sugar.

  3. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean, 20 minutes. Let cool completely.

  4. Meanwhile, make frosting: In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add powdered sugar and cinnamon and beat until no lumps remain. Add heavy cream, vanilla, and a pinch of salt and beat until combined. If frosting is too thick, add more heavy cream, a tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency.

  5. Transfer frosting to piping bag fitted with a large open star tip. Pipe frosting onto cooled cupcakes, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and top with a mini churro.
