Green Velvet Cupcakes


I am so excited this year to be able to bring out some of my dusty recipes for St Paddy’s Day!

This cupcake one in particular is such a great pick for your child’s school party, team treat, ballet class or team dinner!

Kids love cupcakes and these will go fast.

The best part is Pillsbury has such a wide variety of colored batters you can choose one (or two) that are significant to your event.

Or you can just take a white cakes mix and some food coloring. Add 2 drops at a time and mix to make sure your color isn’t too vibrant!

I like making cupcakes to take with me for occasions.

I never did like to eat them though!

No matter how careful I am the icing ends up on my nose.

And no matter how you cut it that is not an appealing look.

Someone told me they pull the cupcake in half and turn the icing to the middle.

Problem solved!!

These are the INGREDIENTS you will need:

  • 1 package Pillsbury® Green Velvet Cake Mix
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup Crisco® Pure Vegetable Oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 container Pillsbury® Creamy Supreme® Classic White Frosting
  • green sugar crystals

These are the INSTRUCTIONS for preparation:

  • HEAT oven to 350°F. Line muffin cups with paper baking cups. Prepare cake mix according to package directions using water, oil and eggs. Divide evenly into prepared muffin cups being careful not to fill to top.
  • BAKE 19 to 23 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Remove to wire rack to cool completely.
  • FROST cupcakes with white frosting. Sprinkle immediately with green sugar crystals.

Go ahead, think out of the box! Let me know YOUR favorites in the comment section.

    Green Velvet cupcakes??!! These will be making an appearance at my house this St. Patrick’s day! Do they tase like red velvet or like plain boxed cake?

    Reply
    • blankMarilyn says

      February 23, 2020 at 10:19 PM

      I dont think red velvet has its own taste. They taste just like a white or yellow mix. The trick is if you color your own, the more dye you use the more you can taste it. This was a green velvet box mix so it wasnt that way. Thanks for sharing tonight and enjoy your week!

          I have seen it at the grocery, meijer and kroger but it is seasonal. You can add 1/2 teaspoon green food color to white or yellow cake mix. I would use a white one. Blend it really well and you can darken it by 1 drop at a time. Go slow and mix well in between. I have done this with blue so it should work. Good luck!

      Thanks CD! I know you can get it online for sure. Here in Michigan it is very hard to find. You can use a white cake mix with green food dye as well! Good luck!

    These are fun! I’ve never seen green velvet cupcake mix. These cupcakes would be perfect for today, Dr. Seuss Day. 🙂

      Aren’t they adorable? The green velvet is extremly hard to come by here in Michigan. You can achieve the same thing with a white cake mix and green food coloring. Have a great day!

    green cakes always seem a bit strange to me – but these ones are quite amazingly delicious looking (and if they taste like red velvet ones do then that’s an added bonus!) Thanks for sharing at our #OTM link up ~ Leanne 🙂

      I know what you mean Leanne. Blue food makes me cringe. But somehow cupcakes are different.

    These are so pretty, and I didn’t know that there was a green velvet cake mix. I have to find it at the store.

      Heidi, thanks so much for commenting! The green velvet is extremely hard to find and I think only Pillsbury makes it. But you can take a white cake mix and turn it any color you like. I use India Tree food coloring because it doesn’t contain dyes, but any coloribg or gel works. just add a few drops at a time until you achieve the color you want! Usually about 4 drops will do it unless you want a deep color. Good Luck!
