  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 C. oil
  • 1 C. milk
  • FROSTINGS:
  • 1 C. butter room temperature

  • 1 1/2-2 C. powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. milk
  • 1/3 C. unsweetened cocoa powder

Instructions
 

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pan with cupcake liners. I used green for a grass field look, but you can use your team colors!
  • 2. Combine cake mix, eggs, oil and milk and stir until smooth.
  • 3. Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full and bake for 15-20 minutes.
  • 4. Let cool.
  • 5. FROSTINGS: Beat butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar until smooth. Remove about 1/4 cup to keep as your "white" frosting for the football threads. Continue to add milk and cocoa powder for your "brown" football frosting.
  • 4. Watch video above to see how to pipe frosting!
