Yield 24 cupcakes, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix
1 cup buttermilk
4 eggs
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 cup Kool-Aid, mix
1 cup butter
3 tablespoons milk
4 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup Kool-Aid, mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F Line 24 baking cups with paper liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine all cake ingredients. Mix on low for 30 seconds. Scrape down sides of the bowl and beat on medium speed for 2 minutes.
  • Fill cups 2/3 full with cupcake batter. Bake for about 15 minutes or until stops spring back lightly when touched. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely on a rack.
