Color Run- Faithful Friends-Colorful Cupcakes

Colorfu Cupcakes

My friend Cathy & I participated in the Color Run again this year.  Our team was Faithful Friends
including Garrett, Liz, Duncan, Camden, Aiden, and Doug.

Cathy brought this beautiful decorated cake the night  before The Color Run.


The night was definitely colorful.




Here are some pictures of the big day.




 I prepared these Colorful Cupcakes a couple of weeks after the Color Run to celebrate summer with family.


Gather colorful ingredients...
Orange cake mix, purple frosting, colored ice cream cups and sprinkles.

 Prepare a colorful Funfetti Cake mix according to directions.

Spoon cake batter into ice cream cups about 2/3 full.

 Wrap aluminum foil around the bottom of the ice cream cone cup,
so it doesn't fall over during baking.

Bake  at 350 degrees for 20-23 minutes.

When cupcakes are cool,
frost with colorful frosting and top with sprinkles.

 Enjoy!



More summer fun!


Ice Cream Cupcakes.


 Bake a chocolate cake mix according to directions on the box.

 Instead of cupcake liners, pour batter into canning jelly jars
that have been coated with non-stick cooking spray.
They need to be canning jars so they can be put into the oven.

 Bake at 350 degrees for 20-23 minutes.

 Cool, and then press down cake to half the size of the jar.

 Then, top with softened ice cream.
I used Birthday Cake Ice Cream.

 Smooth ice cream over cake.

Put lids on canning jars and freeze.

Top with Magic Shell.

 Return to freezer until ready to serve.

 Remove from freezer a few minutes before serving.

Enjoy!

More summer fishin' fun!
