Luck Of The Irish Shamrock Cupcakes
Ello, everyone! I hope that you are having a wonderful day? Today I wanted to share with you these super cute and fun shamrock cupcakes perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. They are super easy to make and even more fun to eat!
These cupcakes are a perfect way for your kids and the entire family to enjoy St. Patrick’s day together. You could even have your kids help in making the cupcakes since the process is so easy.
How To Make Shamrock Cupcakes
For this recipe, I just used a simple white cupcake mix but you are more than welcome to use a homemade recipe. Prepare cake mix according to package instructions. Line a muffin tin with different colored cupcake wrappers and fill each wrapper 2/3 of the way full of cake batter.
I like to use different colored wrappers as it just makes things a bit more colorful like a rainbow. Next, top each cupcake with one shamrock marshmallow and bake according to package instructions.
Allow cupcakes to cool completely, then prepare the icing by mixing gel food coloring with premade icing. Pipe the icing on top of each cupcake. Again you can use your own recipe, but if you are cooking a lot of these sometimes it is much simpler.
Top each cupcake with one chocolate coin and one shamrock marshmallow and that is it!!!
