Tie-Dye Cupcakes

Some people call these cupcakes Tie-Dye cupcakes, Rainbow Cupcakes or even Dr. Seuss Cupcakes. They are so fun to make & such a big hit at parties! I made these last month for my little buddy's 3rd birthday. Everyone loved them. There isn't a real recipe, but I will tell you how I made them.

Tie-Dye Cupcakes:

1 White Cake Mix {must be white, not yellow}
Your favorite frosting
Food Coloring
Cupcake Liners
Sprinkles {optional}

Make the cake batter as directed on the box. Next, divide the batter evenly into as many bowls as you would like. I did six.

Next, use your food coloring to dye each bowl of batter a different color. ***I recommend not doing purple. Once it bakes it looks more like a brownish color. Not very flattering. :)

Scoop a spoonful of one color of batter and put it in the cupcake liner, to one side {if that makes sense?}. Scoop up another color of batter and place it next to the last color in the same cupcake liner. Don't stir the batters together, otherwise you won't achieve the tie-dye effect. Your cupcakes should look a little something like this:Bake cupcakes as directed on cake box. Once they have cooled, frost them with your favorite frosting, then top with sprinkles if you choose. Voila! Take these to a party and you'll be the talk of the town!
