DIRECTIONS

1.Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.

2.Follow cake mix directions for cupcakes.

3.Fill only 2/3 full to avoid selling over the sides, then bake at 350 degrees for 19 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan to cool completely.

4.Color 1 1/2 cans of white icing to Kelly Green. For the two-toned frosting, put both green and white frosting in the same bag, side by side, using Tip M1. For the solid green frosting, fill a bag with the icing, also using Tip M1.

5.Pine the frosting onto each cupcake and top with sprinkles and a St. Patrick’s Day pick.
