St. Patrick's Day Cupcakes

How adorable are these cupcakes!? I made them today, because I was worried I wouldn't have the energy to make them tomorrow. My husband is a true Irishman and my son is 50% Irish, so St. Patrick's Day is a big deal in our household!

What you will need:
  • White cake mix
  • White icing
  • Green food coloring
  • Green writable icing (with tips)
1. Make cake mix and add lots of food coloring to mix. Green is one of the hardest colors to get to show up, so you need to do at least 15 drops.
2. Spoon mixture into cupcake pans, and bake as directed.
3. Now you have cute, green cupcakes...

4. Mix the white icing and green food coloring, until you get a green that you're happy with. Then, spread the icing!
Now, you can use the green writable icing to make shamrocks, leprechauns, or to write out "Happy St. Patrick's Day," like I did! :)
