Camo Cupcakes


My step-daughter and I made Camo Cupcakes for my brother's birthday today.
They turned out so great and were a big hit.

Mix a box of chocolate cake mix as directed on the box.
Mix a box of white cake mix as directed on the box.
Put half the white cake mix in another bowl.  Add a little of the chocolate mix and green food coloring until you have a camo green color.
Drop spoon fulls of each color into cupcakes liners in a cupcake pan until it is about 3/4 full.   You might want to use more of the chocolate just because there will be more of that mix.
Cook as directed for cupcakes on the cake mix box.

When the cupcakes are cool you can put icing on them.
You will need one can of chocolate icing and one of white icing (I used cream cheese icing).
Put half the white icing in another bowl.  Add chocolate icing and green food coloring until you have a camo green color.

Put each color in a icing bag or ziplock.  Then put all three bags in a bigger icing bag or ziplock.
Cut the tip off and add a icing tip.  What ever kind you want.  Then swirl it on the cupcakes.  It will come out with the different colors.  I found that taping the three bags together before putting them in the larger bag helped.

  Hope someone else enjoys them as much as us.
