Easter Rainbow Cupcakes

It has been way too long since I've shared a recipe with, y'all, hasn't it?!  I have a good one for you today!

I made these sweet cupcakes for Easter Sunday, and they were quite a hit!



So cool looking, right?!

I got the recipe and instructions from Kevin and Amanda, so I am going to direct you right on over to their page for the deets!  But here are some photos of my process!

Note: I did use the frosting recipe they recommended, but did not make the cake from scratch.  I actually prefer cake box cake...I'm weird!

I used these Wilton icing colors: Christmas Red, Cornflower Blue, and Lemon; mixing them to make the green and orange shades.



I split the batter into 5 bowls, tried to make it as evenly divided as possible, and used the 3 colors to make the 5 colors I wanted.


 Spooned the batter into the cupcake liners, about 2 teaspoons of each color in each liner.  Popped those suckers in the over, whipped up some amazing vanilla buttercream, and voila!
