Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the 1 box vanilla cake mix, 3 eggs, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 1 cup water. Beat with an electric mixer on medium until smooth, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18-20 minutes.
Step 4
Let the cupcakes cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Step 5
Frost the cooled cupcakes with the 1 tub vanilla frosting and top with the 2 tbsp rainbow sprinkles.
