Made with a rich and buttery cake base, topped with a creamy caramel frosting and finished off with a crunchy toffee topping, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with anyone who loves a good dessert.

To make these cupcakes, you will need the following ingredients:

- For the cupcakes:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt

- For the frosting:

- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

- For the toffee topping:

- 1/2 cup toffee bits
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk and vanilla extract, until everything is well combined.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cupcake liner about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before frosting.
To make the frosting, beat the butter in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy. Add in the caramel sauce and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Gradually add in the powdered sugar, mixing until the frosting is smooth and creamy.
Once the cupcakes are cooled, pipe or spread the frosting onto each cupcake. Sprinkle the toffee bits on top of the frosting, pressing them gently into the frosting to ensure they stick.
