Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Cupcake liners should be used to line a muffin tin.
Combine the cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs in a large mixing bowl.
Beat with an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds, then increase to medium for 2 minutes.
Mix in a few drops of green food coloring until well combined.
Fill the cupcake liners about two-thirds full with the batter.
Bake the cupcakes for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and set them aside to cool completely.
In a separate mixing bowl, cream the softened butter until it is creamy.
One cup at a time, gradually add the powdered sugar, beating well after each addition.
When the frosting is smooth and creamy, add the whole milk and vanilla extract.
Mix in a few drops of green food coloring until the frosting is a bright green color.
Frost the cooled cupcakes with the frosting.
If desired, garnish with shamrock-shaped sprinkles or green sugar.
