Yesterday was my mom's 45th birthday (or 54th according to Ms. T) and Mr. Homemaker & I decided we would have her and my dad over for a birthday supper and cupcakes! I wanted to do something different...something non-traditional in terms of her cupcakes.
So, being the Pinterest addict that I am, I found Candy Corn Cupcakes!!
Bear in mind, my cupcakes are not as pretty as the one's in the above photo, but boy were they yummy!!
So here you go, instructions (with pictures) on how to make your own candy corn cupcakes!
All of your ingredients needed, minus the red & yellow food coloring I forgot to add in the picutre! :)
Add your oil, water, and egg whites to your boxed cake mixture. Add the quantities that the box calls for.
Have an adorably, enthusiastic 4yr old to assist with the mixing.
Take a break, and let your enthusiastic helper lick the beaters {her favorite part...I think that's why she likes helping!}
Divide your batter into 3 seperate dishes. This is so you can add the food coloring to make the batter white, yellow, and orange.
Add your food coloring and mix, mix, mix!!
Put a scoop of yellow batter in (I forgot to photograph that part), and next a scoop of orange batter on top.
Finally, add a scoop of white batter on top!
Once you fill the cupcake liners with the batter, bake according to the package instructions.
When the cupcakes are done baking, take them out of the pan to cool.
Finally, once they are cool, frost with vanilla frosting and top with a candy corn...or two!!
And when you open it up, this is what it should look like!
