Bake Sale Cupcakes

I wanted to find something that would intrigue the kids and go along with our "Giving Garden" theme, as well as soething that was super tasty. So I found this recipe for Oreo Dirt Cupcakes:

I wanted to make the cupcake itself special, so I found a recipe for "Mini OREO Surprise Cupcakes", which uses Chocolate Cake Mix ( I used Devil's Food Cake) and adds a sweet cream cheese filling and a mini oreo. They were delicious!




Two days later was St. Patrick's Day and I wanted to make the same cupcakes because they were a huge hit, while at the same time adding a green-twist to them. I simply added green food coloring to everthing (including the chocolate cake mix - not the prettiest color) and the result was deliciously fun.




I also added some green food coloring to simple White Cake cake mix and Vanilla Frosting and topped them with geen sprinkles -
 They were very tasty and St. Patty's Day appropriate.

All of these cupcakes turned out amazing, but again, I cannot take credit for anything but successfully following a good recipe. They will definitely be made again in the future.
