I wanted to make something festive for St. Patrick’s Day…so I did.
RAINBOW CUPCAKES
Sometimes around holidays I feel like making a treat. Let’s be honest, every Sunday I feel like making a treat – this week I just waited until the holiday. Here’s how it went down…
The ingredients:
(Please note that while I’m making these cupcakes I am also watching The Biggest Loser)
(Please note that while I’m making these cupcakes I am also watching The Biggest Loser)Next the batter gets colored:
Then you pour the batter one layer at a time:
Next bake and cool:
Finally frost and enjoy :)
I was going to take these around to neighbors but the frosting was a little thin so they didn’t turn out as pretty as I was hoping. Also, I realized I used canola oil instead of vegetable oil so they taste a little different….still good, but different. So instead, Jonathan took a bunch to work today and his fellow employee’s were thrilled. Someday Hannah will get excited when I do stuff like this. For now, she’s “content” to just watch and eat dehydrated fruit.

So cute Ali! What a fun idea! Hannah WILL appreciate what a fun mom she has. I wish I could say I'd done something fun at our house. Anderson wore green, ate Lucky Charms and didn't understand Dad's jokes... ???
So impressive Ali. They are really beautiful. I thought they might end up looking gray but the colors held. The frosting looked very professional. A shout out to Jonathan's co workers who seem to eat and appreciate anything. I of course an refering to all the kitchen oops I've sent to work with him.
So So Cool Ali! I want one. They look so yummy and so festive. Your pictures are so good to. Great job with both the pics and the cupcakes :)
I can attest, still tasty even with the Canola oil! :)
One of my coworkers took a bite, then help up the cupcake and said, "Whoa! It's all crazy inside!"
I want cupcakes. When can i come over?
Love Dad
I saw all of these fun ideas that other people did...like leprechauns that come and search for gold while the kids are asleep. But then I realized that Shayla could care less right now, and I was feeling lazy. Some day I will actually make the holidays fun. Props to you for actually doing something.
On a side note...how is Hannah doing with the hair growing process? Is it getting any better? :)
Yum, those look delicious! Looks like we're going to be your neighbors the beginning of June, yay!
