Cream Cheese Clover Cupcakes

Cream Cheese Clover Cupcakes

This recipe makes 24 servings.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons softened butter
  • 1/2 cup (125g) Philadelphia cream cheese
  • 2 cups (250ml) icing sugar
  • 24 pcs Cut-up black liquorice
  • Chewy fruit snacks

Method:

  1. Prepare and bake the cake mix as directed on the package for 24 cupcakes.  Cool completely.
  2. Beat the softened butter with the cream cheese in medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.  Gradually add the icing sugar, beating until well blended after each addition.  Spread evenly onto tops of cupcakes.
  3. Decorate each cupcake with the cut-up black liquorice and chewy fruit snacks to resemble a clover in a basket.  Store in refrigerator until ready to be served.

Note:

Pour the cake batter into large resealable plastic bag. Snip off 1 corner from bottom of bag and squeeze the batter into paper-lined muffin cups. It’s much quicker and less messy than spooning the batter into each cup.
