Pistachio Cupcakes

March 23, 2014 by Kay 4 Comments

Pistachio Cupcakes have a fluffy texture, are super moist and are frosted with a sweet Butter Cream Frosting. They remind me of pistachio ice cream, which is a favorite flavor of mine.

The addition of chopped pistachios in the cupcake mix really takes these cupcakes to a 5 Star, although the butter cream frosting does help in the rating.

These make a perfect spring treat, the green color of the cupcake and the bright colored sprinkles really scream spring and would make a fun Easter treat. Choose your favorite sprinkle or colored sugar to top these cupcakes and if you have kids, the perfect time to ask your kids to help decorate the cupcakes.

Fresh out of the oven.

Frost generously and add sprinkles.
