- To assemble each of 12 slushee cups, remove cupcake liners from 2 cupcakes. Put 1 cupcake in bottom of drinking cup, and poke with fork. Spoon 1 tablespoon drink mix syrup over cupcake. Top with about 1 tablespoon frosting mixture. Put second cupcake on top of frosting in drinking cup, and poke with fork. Spoon 1 tablespoon drink mix syrup over cupcake. Pipe frosting over top of cupcake. Insert straw into cup. Sprinkle with edible glitter. Repeat to use remaining cupcakes. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. Store any leftover cupcakes in refrigerator.
Notes
Tips:[br]If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.
