Put the Happy in St. Patrick’s Day

Filed under: family, general — themommyincharge @ 10:17 am

We’ve been busy this morning preparing for the big day tomorrow! We decided to try these Taste a Rainbow cupcakes in honor of the St. Patrick’s Day. A sweet treat to bring to a coffee/playdate tomorrow.

What do you need:

  • 1 White or Golden Cake Mix
  • 1 Banana or Vanilla Instant Pudding Mix
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 Cup of Water
  • 1/2 Cup of Vegetable Oil
  • Red, Yellow, Green and Blue Food Coloring

How to:

Mix cake and instant pudding mix in a bowl. Make a well in the center and add eggs, water and oil. Beat on low for 30 seconds, then 2 minutes on medium with the electric mixer.

Divide batter into 5 separate bowls and color Red, Orange (12 drops yellow, 4 drops red), Yellow, Green and Blue.





Line muffin pan with cupcake liners and begin layering the batter in the rainbow formation. Blue, green, yellow, orange, red. Simply place dots of each color on top of one another, they will spread out on their own.








Bake at 350 degrees for 19 minutes. Cool and top with a cloud of whip cream.

Makes 18 cupcakes.





Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
