Key Lime Cupcakes

from Betty Crocker...

Cupcakes
1 box lemon cake mix
1 box lime jello
3/4 cup water
1/3 cup lime juice
1/3 cup oil
3 eggs

Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
2 Tablespoons lime juice

Frosting
1 package cream cheese
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Mix cake mix and jello mix together. Add other ingredients. Mix on low for 30 seconds then on medium for 2 minutes. Fill muffin cups. (I made 12 cupcakes and 1 9 inch round cake) Bake for 17-22 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes, remove from pan. Poke holes in the top with fork or toothpick. Mix glaze and spread on top of cupcakes. Let cool completely. Mix ingredients for frosting until fluffy (mine didn't become fluffy). Frost. Eat.

I made these for Phil's fathers' day present and a Star Wars t-shirt. He thought they were quite yummy.
