Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup cupcake pan with colorful liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix together the wet ingredients: champagne, milk, vanilla extract, and peach puree.
  6. Alternate adding the dry and wet ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing just until combined.
  7. Spoon the batter into the lined cupcake cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 18–20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. For the buttercream, beat the butter until smooth, then gradually mix in powdered sugar and add peach puree, champagne, and salt.
  10. Frost the cooled cupcakes generously with the peach champagne buttercream and garnish with fresh peach slices and sparkling sugar.
