I found these cute little cupcakes made with brownie mix on the bottom and cake mix on top, and the original recipe called for a red velvet cupcake. I wanted to make some green cupcakes for Matthew and his love of Ninja Turtles, so I just used a white cake mix instead and added some green food coloring. :) I do think red velvet would have been delicious though.
Regardless, these little cupcakes are fantastic!! We all loved the brownie (slightly undercooked) on the bottom. I will definitely be making these again! The only thing I would probably do differently next time is to add more cake mix on top of each of the brownies. I tried to keep it a 50/50 ratio, and I think it would have been even better with more cake batter on top.
The original recipe gives a recipe for the frosting, but I made my own butter cream frosting so I omitted the frosting ingredients.
1
box brownie mix -follow directions on box
1
box strawberry cake mix -follow directions on box (I used a vanilla cake mix and used milk instead of water)
Combine brownie ingredients in a medium sized bowl. Then combine strawberry mix
in a separate bowl. Stir until smooth.
Fill bottom of cupcake liners with a spoonful of brownie batter. Then add
another spoonful of strawberry mix on top. The cups should be about 2/3 the way
full.
Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes. Remove from pan and allow cupcakes to cool
before frosting.
