Rainbow cupcakes

The perfect cupcakes for the most adorable 2-year-old's birthday! 

Ingredients: 
  • White cake mix (usually requires eggs, oil, water)
  • Frosting
  • Assorted food coloring 
  • Cupcake liners
Directions

1) Prepare cake mix according to instructions

2) Divide cake mix evenly into Ziploc bags (depending on # of colors you want to use)

3) Add desired amount of food coloring to bags, close bags, and roll/knead bags until all food coloring is mixed in

4) Fill cupcake pan with liners and put a little bit of each color in, layer by layer. We figured out the best way to fill the cupcake liners is to make a circle around the outer edge and then fill it in with a zig zag pattern

(we used a spoon to spread each color to the edge before moving onto the next color)

5) Once liners are ~2/3 full, they're ready to bake!


6) Bake according to instructions on cake mix


7) Let cool, frost, decorate, and most importantly, EAT!
