Instructions

  • Step 
    1
    Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. Make cake batter as directed on box for 24 cupcakes. Stir in 1/4 cup candy sprinkles. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups (about two-thirds full).
  • Step

    Bake 14 to 19 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Step 
    3
    Place 1/4 cup frosting each in 3 small bowls, and tint 1 bowl blue, 1 bowl green, and 1 bowl red with food colors. Place 1 tablespoon vanilla frosting in small bowl, and tint brown with food color to desired color. Spoon brown colored frosting into small resealable food-storage plastic bag; partially seal bag, and set aside.

    On each cupcake, spread 2 teaspoons of the remaining vanilla frosting to cover two-thirds of cupcake; place 2 candy eyeballs, and 1 orange triangle for nose. Cut off tiny corner of brown frosting bag, and squeeze bag to pipe a half circle under nose for a smile. For hat, spread generous teaspoon of blue frosting on cupcake, and immediately sprinkle with white sprinkles on colored edge to make brim. Place 1 marshmallow for pom pom. Repeat frosting for hat and sprinkles with remaining cupcakes and colored frostings (use photo as guide).
