Patriotic Cupcakes
I usually leave the cupcakes to my girl Jamie, but I couldn’t resist when I had an idea for patriotic cupcakes and multiple 4th of July occasions to bake them for! I’ve already made two batches of these cupcakes, one for a red/white/blue themed Duck Dodge and one for a 4th of July feast at my office today.
For the cupcakes, I made a white batter and then divided the batter into three separate bowls. I used food coloring to dye one bowl red and one bowl blue. I then layered the three colors into the cupcake pan and used a toothpick to create a ‘tie-dye’ effect. Here’s the end result…

Happy 4th of July!!
