So last week for TJLA (homeschool classes) I made a recipe that I found on pinterest (to sell) for cupcakes with Lucky Charms on them here, Cute idea right?
I also found another recipe for green ombre cupcakes here
Unfortunately, I over cooked them a little bit. But I sold them all! they were a HUGE success, even people in the neighbourhood came and bought some!
So here's the recipe:
Green Ombre St. Patty's day cupcakes:
1 box of White cake mix
Green food coloring
Lucky charms
Buttercream frosting (recipe below)
5 bowls
5 spoons
For the Ombre cupcakes:
Mix the white cake according to recipe on box.
Seporate into five bowls, then add green food coloring to each bowl and stir.
- Layer 1 = 1 drop
- Layer 2 = 4 drops
- Layer 3 = 8 drops
- Layer 4 = 12 drops
- Layer 5 = 14 drops
Then fill each cupcake liner with a heaping teaspoon of each color. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
For Buttercream frosting:
Cream together with an electric mixer:
1 cube of butter, softend
Milk
4-5 c. Powdered sugar
1 tsp. Vanilla
Taste to make sure its good ;)
When cupcakes are cool pipe frosting on, and and add three or four Lucky Charms and green colored sugar or sprinkles. Enjoy a cute and sweet treat for St. Patty's day!
