Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or line a standard muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, pudding, baking powder and salt. Whisk dry ingredients well.
Using a hand or stand mixer, cream butter 1-2 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Mix in your cream cheese until well incorporated, and then do the same with your vanilla. On low, mix in the egg whites.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Slowly add in the creamer and mix on medium for 1 minute.
Divide the batter evenly between 3 small bowls. Add in your food coloring into each bowl until desired color is achieved. Using a spoon or ice cream scoop, add a small amount of each color batter into the muffin tin until each is about 2/3 full. This will give you the tie dye effect. You can also use a toothpick and swirl the colors together. Bake for 15-17 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
Directions for Frosting:
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream together butter and cream cheese and beat until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla extract.
Slowly mix in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, while adding a bit of milk in between each cup. for 1 minute or until creamy.
Separate frosting into 3 bowls. Add in your food coloring into each bowl until desired color is achieved. Prepare frosting bags/kit and fill each color frosting into each separate bag. Place the 3 smaller piping bags into the larger piping bag or connect to the tri-piping tip.
Pipe each cupcake and sprinkle with white edible glitter.
