Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.

In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, oil, eggs, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Fold in crushed cereal. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.

Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until toothpick inserted near center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.

In medium bowl, beat butter and powdered sugar with electric mixer on low speed until combined. Beat in milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon on medium speed until fluffy.

Pipe or spread frosting on cupcakes. Garnish each cupcake with 1 cereal piece.
