JELLO AND COOL WHIP FROSTING

Steps:

• Make jello as directed on package except using 3/4 cup boiling water instead of 1 cup so the jello is a little thicker.
• After jello is set, beat with mixer until there are small pieces. Add cool whip and beat until completely mixed. Spread on angel food cake. Keep refrigerated until time to serve.

HOW TO MAKE JELLO FROSTING

Steps:

• Combine the jello powder, sugar, egg white, and vanilla in a pot. Stir with a whisk on low heat.
• Slowly pour in the boiling water and mix. Turn the heat to medium and stir.
• Turn the heat up to high and continue to whisk for 5 minutes.
• Allow the frosting to cool. Shut off the stove once the frosting is creamy and thick. Let the frosting cool and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
• Chill the frosting in the fridge until ready to use
• Serve. Use the frosting to top off cakes, cupcakes, brownies, sweet breads, and other desserts by using a large butter knife, spatula, or frosting pipe. Enjoy!

JELLY-FILLED CUPCAKES WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line one 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper cupcake liners. Gently spray the liners with baking spray and set aside.
• Sift the flour, baking powder and salt over a large piece of paper. In a large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar with a hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, egg yolk and vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Pour in the milk and continue to mix until smooth (the batter may look curdled at first but will smooth out). Pick up the paper with the dry ingredients and gradually pour into the wet ingredients. Continue to mix just until blended.
• Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared tin, filling the cups about three-quarters full. Bake until the tops of the cupcakes spring back to the touch and are not too golden, about 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 15 minutes, and then allow to cool completely on a wire rack before filling, frosting or decorating.
• Fill a squeeze bottle with the grape jelly and screw on the cap. Carefully insert the tip of the squeeze bottle as far as it will go into the tops of the cupcakes. Gently squeeze about 1 tablespoon jelly inside of each cupcake. Ice the tops of the cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting to cover. Decorate with your favorite candy.
• Beat the peanut butter, butter and cream cheese with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Slowly add the confectioners' sugar and continue to mix until the frosting is smooth. Mix in the milk and continue to mix until it reaches a good spreading consistency.
