"from kraft. Recommends Cool Whip for the icing but I think regualar icing might be a touch better. The new aerosol cool whip can would make frosting these a breeze!!"

I'm incapable of just making normal cupcakes lol I have to find "fun" cupcake recipes. Made these for a birthday get together and they were fabulous. Instead of plain old whipped cream I made my own whipped cream frosting useing Recipe #39013 Made half vanilla and half chocolate. Thanks for a simple and fun cupcake Jennygal!

This was great. Everyone loved it. We used devils food cake mix and frosted with whipped cream. My son requested that we take these to his school for his birthday!
