Beat the butter until it has a creamy consistency, then mix it with the sugar until the ingredients are unified. Add the eggs one by one. Do not add another egg until the previous one has been fully incorporated. Add the flour, previously sifted and mixed with salt and baking powder. Mix well. To finish, add the milk and vanilla. Place the mixture in cupcake liners. Do not exceed 3/4 full. Bake for 15 minutes at 180 degrees. Check if the muffin is ready; if a toothpick inserted comes out dry, your muffin is ready. To make the cherry topping, place the cream cheese and powdered sugar in a deep bowl, mixing them with a hand mixer. Add cherry essence to the cream cheese mixture with powdered sugar, starting with one tablespoon and adjusting the flavor if necessary. Finally, add a little red gel food coloring so that the topping takes on the color of cherries. Place the topping in a piping bag and decorate the cooled muffin. After applying the topping, decorate with a cherry and red sprinkles. Now it's time to enjoy your cherry red muffins.
