Quick poll: Is baking nerds into a cake too extreme? Yes or yes? bakeitinacake: Hey, Nerds! Did you know you can mix Nerds candy into your favorite cupcake batter to make an even better version of confetti cake? It’s true! Just mix up a basic vanilla batter (my recipe is here), and then stir in 3/4 cups Nerds candy. Fill your cupcake tins 3/4 of the way full and bake for about 23 minutes, until they’re golden brown and the cake springs back when you gently press your finger into the top of it. I finished mine off with vanilla buttercream and an extra sprinkle of the dangerously crunchy candy. CUTE!
