Ingredients
1 package chocolate cake mix, prepared according to package directions to yield 12 cupcakes1 container vanilla frosting green food coloring
Directions
Reserve 1/4 of the vanilla frosting. Place 3/4 of it in a bowl, then add green food coloring until it reaches the desired color. Place in a piping bag or a ziptop bag with one corner snipped off. Using short strokes, pipe the green frosting onto the cupcakes to resemble grass.
Allow frosting to set in the fridge for an hour, then place reserved white frosting into a piping bag or ziptop bag with one corner snipped.
Pipe one line down the center, then place a number on either side of the line to resemble yard lines.
