Patriotic Ice Cream Cupcakes Recipe


Ingredients:
1 pkg. (18 1/4 oz.) red velvet cake mix
1 quart blue moon ice cream, softened
3 c. heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 c. marshmallow creme
Red, white and blue sprinkles
Blue colored sugar


Directions:
Prepare cake mix batter according to package directions for cupcakes.


Fill paper-lined muffin cups half full.  Bake at 350 degrees for 11-14 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.  Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.


Working quickly, spread ice cream over cupcakes.  Freeze for at least 1 hour.


In a large bowl, combine cream and marshmallow creme; beat until stiff peaks form.  Pipe over cupcakes; decorate with sprinkles and colored sugar.  Freeze for 4 hours or until firm.


Note~  Can use vanilla ice cream tinted with blue food coloring if you would like to substitute out the blue moon ice cream.
