Pink Lemonade Cupcakes

Pink Lemonade Cupcakes:
  • One box of strawberry cake mix (plus oil, water and eggs as directed on box)
  • 2- 8oz. packages of Philadelphia Cream Cheese (softened to room temp.)
  • 1 packet (0.23oz.) of Kool-Aid Lemonade
  • Yellow food coloring  (as desired for color)
  • 1- 7oz. container Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme
  • 1/3 c. powdered sugar
  • 8 oz. Cool Whip Topping
  • Confetti sprinkles and paper straws to decorate as desired
DIRECTIONS:
  • Make cake according to box and bake in 24 cupcake liners placed in cupcake tins, as directed.  Cool completely.
  • In a mixing bowl, cream together cream cheese, lemonade and yellow food coloring until smooth.
  • Beat marshmallow creme and powdered sugar into cream cheese mixture and then fold in Cool Whip until completely smooth.  
  • Spoon frosting into a zip top bag that has a piping tip inserted into one corner (I used a Wilton 1M star tip).
  • Pipe frosting on tops of each cupcake- you can be generous, as this recipe makes a lot of frosting and the frosting is so light and fluffy.
  • Decorate as desired.
  • Refrigerate and serve chilled.  


I do not own this recipe.  I found it at http://easybaked.net/2013/03/27/strawberry-lemonade-cupcakes/
