Martha Stewart, I am not......

I saw these cupcakes a few months ago in a magazine and thought "I have to try those"...so I did! And I think they turned out great. They weren't too much of a hit on Saturday night, but I made more on Sunday and I took only one "corn-on-the-cob" home out of six. They are SUPER easy...


And I tried to make mine a little more healthy...the cake mix was regular lemon cake mixed with 12 oz. of diet ginger ale. Bake as instructed on the box and they turn out so moist!!! I then had to use regular icing as the cool whip was too runny with it, so I have white icing in this picture...on Sunday I mixed yellow food coloring with the white icing and they turned out even better. The "pats of butter" are partially melted starburst.

Betty Crocker and Martha Stewart, eat your hearts out! Ha ha ha ha ha
