Feeling Patriotic? Let’s make patriotic cupcakes or muffins for a Fourth of July celebration!

Here’s how.

Purchase a white  cake mix or muffin mix. Follow the directions for making cupcakes/muffins on the box. Let the children add the ingredients as directed and stir the mix.

After sufficiently mixing, divide the batter into three bowls. Now it is time to add color! Add red food coloring to one bowl, mix well. Add blue food coloring to a second bowl. Mix well. Please leave the third bowl uncolored.

Use one color to fill 1/3 of your individual muffin cup.  Here we used red first.

Use the second color to fill the next 1/3 of the individual muffin. Here we used the uncolored batter.

Scoop the last color to fill the muffin cup. We scooped blue last.

Bake according to the directions on the box. Here is the final baked muffin! Enjoy
