Hey friends! First up, I need to admit that I’m not a huge baker. I like to make fun treats, but I’m generally not one to be super innovative with making up my own desserts. However, I do have a few things that I like to pride myself in making and these Snickerdoodle Cupcakes with Cool Whip Frosting is one of those things!
Come on guys – just looking at these pictures makes you want to go make a batch, right? They’re literally sooo good and I promise you won’t regret it! And in my opinion, the best part is they’re made from a simple Yellow Cake Box Mix!! Can I have a hallelujah?
These are hands down my kids favorite cupcake! I make them for most holiday parties, but for sure they make an appearance at all our New Years, 4th of July and Halloween parties!

For the Frosting
- Pour the pudding mix in a medium sized bowl and add the milk and vanilla. Whisk (or beat) the ingredients together until they’re blended and the mixture begins to thicken.
