Ingredients

1 (12-ounce) container whipped fluffy

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2
(12-muffin) tins with cupcake papers; set aside.

In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, water, and oil. Use a hand held electric mixer and mix on medium speed

oven and bake for 21 to 26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center of cupcake comes out clean with

no wet batter. Use oven mitts to remove from oven and let cool completely before frosting, about 15
minutes.

Once cool, spread 2 tablespoons frosting on each cupcake. Using various gel colors, start in the middle of the
cupcake, make circles outwards to the edge of the cupcake Begin at the edge of the cupcake and drag the tip of
a toothpick to the center of the cupcake to make a spider web effect. Repeat this step, turning cupcake as you
go.
