Creating these Super Bowl Cupcakes can be simple if you follow these steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cocoa powder (if making chocolate cupcakes), and salt.
3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix together the milk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
5. Fill Cupcake Liners: Divide the batter evenly among the lined muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
6. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Cool: Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow them to cool in the tin for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
8. Make the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract, mixing until the frosting is fluffy and smooth.
9. Color the Frosting: Divide the frosting into different bowls and dye them with food coloring to create colors that match your favorite teams.
10. Frost the Cupcakes: Once the cupcakes are cool, use a piped bag to frost them in fun designs, matching your Super Bowl teams. Add toppings like sprinkles or mini chocolate chips for added flair.
