Facebook Repost - Duck Dynasty Cupcakes

This recipe was shared on Facebook by one of my family members and I just fell in love with the look of the cupcakes. I couldn't find an actual website to credit for this recipe so if you know the creator please comment below so I can give them proper credit.

I have decided that I am going to make these to take to work on Veteran's Day.  I am the only veteran in the office but I figure it will be a great way to help those who haven't served, recognize what the day stands for.




Here is the recipe as I copied it from Facebook:


For all of you Duck Dynasty fans - here is a recipe for Camouflage Cupcakes.

Camouflage Cupcakes! 

I started out with 2 box mixes, one chocolate, one white.

Divide the batter into 4 bowls.

1: White batter.

2: White batter with green food coloring and a dash of chocolate batter.

3: Equal parts chocolate and white batter.

4: Chocolate batter.

Mix the different batters together until you get the colors you want. I ended up with a lot more chocolate batter than the rest of the colors, but I ended up making a few plain chocolate cupcakes to use it up.

Line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
For the batter, you can either use spoons and dump little blobs of each color into each wrapper, or you can get fancy and use pastry bags. I chose to get fancy with bags. It makes filling the cupcakes tins a little easier and a little less messy.

Just drop a bunch of blogs in each wrapper until they’re all about 3/4 of the way full. Bake according to the directions on the box.

Once the cupcakes are done baking, pop them out of the tins so they can start cooling.

I used this recipe for icing.

Diving the icing into 3 bowls. Keep one batch white/ivory. The other bowl you will add a little bit of green food coloring and a little bit of cocoa powder until it’s the desired color. The last bowl you will add cocoa powder until it’s the desired color brown.

For the fancy swirled icing, take 3 pastry bags. Fill each bag with it’s own color of icing. Take all 3 bags and put them into 1 larger bag with a start tip in it.

Pipe a swirl onto the tops, and you’re done!
