Looking for something green to eat for St Patrick Day?
I adore the simplicity of these yummy cupcakes.
My kids and husband loved the way they tasted. My husband said they were addicting.
These cupcakes are decorated with Lucky Charms cereal and Duncan Hines Key Lime Pie frosting flavor.
These are perfect for a St Patrick Day party and would pair perfectly with green punch. Let me show you how easy they are to make.
Make your favorite cupcake recipe.
Here is my go to recipe that makes the best cupcakes ever and it is so simple!
Then I made my favorite buttercream icing recipe.
Usually I add gel icing coloring that you can get at your local craft store.
This time I used the Duncan Hines Frosting Creations mix in. This one was flavored Key Lime.
You just mix it in to the icing until it is well blended.
I iced each cupcake.
Then I added a handful of Lucky Charms cereal to the top of each cupcake.
It was as simple as that! We loved them.
(We also took these and shared them with my friend Kim’s family on Saturday as we celebrated her oldest turning 16. I remember when he was a little bitty baby. Where does the time go?)

Thank you for bringing the cupcakes! They were wonderful. We loved them.
Weren’t they yummy.
I know the chocolate buttercream icing is your fav, but this was fun for the occasion.
I hope Sean liked the “recycled cupcakes” (wink).
Those are really cute! I also use that cupcake recipe and it’s awesome. They make the creamiest, most moist cupcakes ever! I’ll never make them without cream cheese again!
Thank Julie! That recipe has been my go-to for years and it never fails me!

I need to get a bag so that I can pipe frosting to look pretty like this. Love them!
Esther- piping your own icing is super easy. Promise!
