The Cat in the Hat character from Dr. Seuss's books gave these cupcakes their fun look. They have cupcakes with red and blue stripes and a smooth white frosting on top. Great for a party with a theme or to honor a favorite book!
Ingredients: 1 box of white cake mix. 1 cup of water. 1/3 cup of vegetable oil. 3 egg whites. Red food coloring. Blue food coloring. White frosting. Cat in the Hat cupcake toppers optional.
Instructions: Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put cupcake liners in a muffin tin. Put the egg whites, water, vegetable oil, and white cake mix in a mixing bowl. Mix until it's smooth. Put an equal amount of batter into each bowl. Change the color of one bowl to blue and the other to red. Mix it until you get the colors you want. Put half of the red batter into each cupcake liner, and then put a layer of blue batter on top. After the oven is hot, bake the cupcakes for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. On a wire rack, let the cupcakes cool all the way down. Spread white frosting on top of each cupcake so that the surface is smooth and clean. If you want to add a decorative touch, you can put a Cat in the Hat cupcake topper on top of each cupcake. Enjoy your Cat in the Hat cupcakes!
