Rainbow Cupcakes (attempt #2)


Step 1: Mix up your cupcake batter (I used this recipe) and divide it into several bowls.


Step 2: Add food colouring to each bowl and mix well.  Combine all the colours back into the mixing bowl.


Step 3:  Divide the batter evenly among the cupcakes.

Step 4: Follow the baking directions for your recipe and enjoy a fun treat.  (Unfortunately, we ate all of the cupcakes before got a chance to take a picture of how they turned out!)

Note:  You can find my first attempt here.  I was very happy with the results this time!  Also, for anyone who is dairy free, I used coconut milk, instead of whole milk in the recipe and it turned out wonderfully.
