Key Lime Cupcakes


Key Lime Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

You know I love Key Lime anything, so I made Key Lime Cupcakes for the reunion this week. They seemed to be a hit! I found the recipe on Betty Crocker, but tweaked the frosting just a bit.
Here's the link for all the directions: Key Lime Cupcakes

Here is my adaptations of the recipe ingredients:
Cupcake Batter
  • 1 Lemon Cake Mix
  • 1 small box of lime jello
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup key lime juice
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • (I did not add any food coloring to the mix, since I thought it was green enough.)
Frosting
I did not do the glaze, but instead added the key lime juice to the frosting.
  • 1 package cream cheese
  • 2 1/2 table spoons of key lime juice
  • 1/4 cup butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
