Spring Snack Recipe: Flower Cupcake in a Cone

Spring has arrived! Is anyone planning on having a spring gathering? Who doesn’t love a fun spring time snack?  This is one of our favorites from Family Fun Magazine.  Be the talk of the party with this fun snack idea.  Keep in mind, it’s also great for birthdays.



Ingredients
·       1 box of cake mix, any flavor
·       Flat-bottomed ice-cream cones
·       White frosting
·       Large gumdrop disks, such as Sunkist Gourmet Fruit Gems (one 14-ounce bag can decorate 5 cupcakes)
Instructions
1.     Prepare the cake batter according to the directions on the box. Fill the narrow bottom of each ice-cream cone with the batter. Set the cones on a baking sheet and transfer them to the oven, being careful not to tip them over.
2.     Bake at 350ยบ for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Let them cool, then frost the tops.
3.   ENJOY!
