Preparation

Preheat the oven to 325\u00b0F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Mix flour, baking powder and baking soda in a large bowl. Beat eggs in a medium bowl. Stir in granulated sugar, vanilla extract, oil and sour cream. Add to the flour mixture and stir until well mixed. Divide among the muffin cups.
Bake for 20-25 mins, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes. Remove from pan; cool completely on wire rack.
For the frosting, mix powdered sugar and lemon juice until well blended. Stir in milk to desired spreading consistency. Remove 2 tbsp of the frosting and tint red with food coloring. Cover with plastic wrap. Spread the white frosting on the cupcakes. Decorate with M&M's for the nose. Let stand to allow frosting to dry.
Use the decorating icing to draw eyes and smiley mouths. Spoon the red frosting into a piping bag fitted with a small plain tip. Pipe cheeks and hair on the clown faces. Let stand to allow frosting to dry.
