  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds
  • 1 tube chocolate decorating frosting, with plain tip

  2. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners. Prepare cake mix, fold in chopped miniatures and bake according to package directions.
  3. Let cupcakes come to room temperature.
  4. In the meantime, tint frosting with yellow food coloring to desired shade. Frost top of each cupcake to cover.
