COLORBURST CUPCAKES


Those are great for kid's birthday...you can try them with the color of your favorite sports team, your favorite Holiday or your kids’ school colors. They will be a hit! :))

1 white cake mix
2 eggs
1 cup yogurt or sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup oil
Food coloring

Combine all ingredients and beat on med-high speed for 2 minutes.
Divide batter according to how many colors you are using. I used 5 colors and it's quite colorful. Use food coloring to color batter to desired intensity. One color per bowl...

To get a layered effect, put a spoonful of each color in the cupcake one at a time. The batter is thick, so it won’t spread on it’s own.

A great tip is to set out a little bowl of water where you’re working.
Dip your finger in the water and then gently spread the batter out. The water will make it so the batter doesn’t stick to your fingers.

Bake them according to the package directions, until a toothpick comes out dry.

Cool them on a rack before frosting. Then you can frost and decorate to your heart’s desire! I use vanilla frosting with colorful sparkles..... The best part is when you peel off the paper and enjoy all the colors. :))
