Hy-Vee Recipes and Ideas

Directions

1. Step1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two 12 (2½-in.) muffin-cup pans with paper baking cups. Lightly spray paper cups with cooking spray; set aside.

2. Step2

   For cupcakes, beat cake mix, water, eggs and oil in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium for 2 minutes. Fill prepared muffin cups three-fourths full with batter. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near centers comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pans; cool completely on a wire rack.

3. Step3

   Using the wide end of a ½-inch round pastry tip, cut the center out of each cupcake. Fill the center of each cupcake with sprinkles and candy corn.

4. Step4

   Divide whipped cream into 3 medium bowls. Add orange food color to one bowl and yellow food color to another. Leave the third bowl white. Stir mixtures until evenly colored. Fill three separate pastry bags with whipped cream mixtures. Snip ½-in. tip off each bag. Add filled bags to a larger pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe a swirl of whipped cream onto each cupcake. Garnish with additional sprinkles, if desired.
