Next add the Self-Raising Flour, Icing Sugar, Nesquik and Milk and mix a final time until you have a smooth cupcake batter.
Spoon the batter between your Baking Cups until they are approx 2/3 full, then transfer to the oven for about 15 minutes or until golden.
Transfer to a wire rack to cool and make your delicious frosting!
To make your frosting, first mix together the plain icing sugar and the butter. Once well combined, add the Icing Sugar and Nesquik and a small amount of the Baby Pink Colour Food Paste and mix a final time until you have a smooth pink frosting!
Once mixed in well and tasting delicious, spoon your frosting into a disposable piping bag fitted with a 2D Piping Tip.

Finish with sprinkles and half a paper straw to complete the milkshake look!
Now simply enjoy! You won’t be disappointed by the wonderful taste of these cupcakes.
