Cupcake Poppers!

Beware: These are very very messy!

First: Gather the ingredients!

First, make the cake batter, same as what the box says

Then, divide the batter into either 5 or 6 different bowls

Then, add the gel food coloring to each bowl and mix

Scoop about a 1 Tablespoon into the mini cupcake tins

Bake for about 11 minutes

Let them cool and then place them on a wire rack to cool for a good while.

When the rest are baking, make the filling. Beat the marshmallow creme, butter and powdered sugar in a mixer, or use a hand mixer

Blend until fluffy

When the cupcakes are all cool, (make sure they are cool enough or you will have trouble), Cut the tops of the cakes off

Take the tops and add the filling in between each sandwich

Keep the cupcake bottoms for another project, or just have them as snacks!

It makes about 30 little cupcake popper sandwiches!

Enjoy!!! =D
