Ingredients

  • ICING:
  • 1 package of Pillsbury white cake mix
  • 2 (3-ounce) packages lime jello
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 (3.4-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • 1 (8-ounce) carton frozen whipped topping, thawed (like Cool Whip)
  • Green Sprinkles

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare and bake cupcakes according to package directions. Let cupcakes cool for 30-60 minutes.

When the cupcakes are cool to the touch, make jello. In a bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water; stir in cold water. Using a straw, make multiple holes in each cupcake. With a baster, insert liquid jello into the cupcake holes. When you're done, place cupcakes in the fridge. Let them sit for 60 minutes.

To make frosting - combine pudding mix and milk. Blend for 2 minutes with a handheld mixer. (You'll have a thick consistency.) Fold in whipped topping. Spread over each cupcake and decorate with green sprinkles. Store cupcakes in the fridge.
