Ready In: 35 minutes
Yield: 12 servings
1 boxed yellow cake mix
apple juice - as needed
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
2 cups white icing
red food coloring - as needed
6 cinnamon sticks - each cut in half
6 candy spearmint leaves - cut in half horizontally
- Prepare cake mix using apple juice in place of water and adding cinnamon.
- Bake in 12 muffin cups as directed.
- While cupcakes are baking, tint icing with red food coloring so it is the color of ripe apples.
