Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or line a standard 12-cavity muffin tin.
In a large mixing bowl filled with the cake mix, add in the water, oil, and egg whites. Using a hand or stand mixer, mix on medium until well incorporated.
Evenly divide the batter into 2 bowls. Add the lime jello to one bowl, and in the 2nd bowl, leave uncolored.
Alternate layering the batter into the muffin tin, first with the green and then with the white, until each cavity is about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting.
Directions for Frosting:
In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, cream the butter, and beat until light and fluffy.
Slowly mix in the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time until creamy and peaks form. Add 1-3 tablespoons of the vanilla coffee creamer in between the powdered sugar as needed.
Add 1-3 drops of the orange food color to the frosting. Add frosting into the large, prepared piping bag.
Frost your cupcakes and garnish with candy monster eyes if desired and enjoy!
