I was woke up with a pinch! I hadn't realized that if you don't have green on you might just get a pinch on St. Patrick's Day. So into the closet I went to find green and avoid little fingers. It was a joy to see the kids running around pretending to be leprechauns this morning. They were busy hiding pots of gold and chasing each other with great excitement. I sometimes forget that these days are filled with wonderment for children. Rebekah's eyes were wide when I told her about the leprechaun I tried to catch and that he got away. I decided to make rainbow cupcakes for the kids in honor of St. Patrick's Day. They were fast and easy.
- Start by taking your favorite cake recipe or mix and follow the directions. Spoon 1/2 of the normal amount of batter into the bottom of each greased muffin cup.
- Now place a drop of each rainbow color on top of the muffin batter.
3. Distribute the rest of the batter over the cup cakes.
4. Take a toothpick and swirl and stir a bit to work the color into the batter.
5. Bake as directed by the recipe. When finished top with fresh whipped cream or cool whip. Sprinkle on a little green sugar and enjoy your St. Patrick's Day treat!
