what you need

1 pkg. (2-layer size) white cake mix

1 pkg. (85 g) Jell-O Strawberry Jelly Powder, or your favourite red flavour

3 cups thawed Cool Whip Whipped Topping

1/4 cup seasonal coloured sprinkles

make it

PREPARE cake batter as directed on package. Stir in dry jelly power until well blended.

LINE 24 medium muffin cups with paper liners. Pour batter evenly into cups, filling each cup half full. Place a small marble or 1/2-inch ball of foil between each liner and side of cup, pushing the paper in to form a heart shape. Bake as directed on package for cupcakes. Cool completely; remove marbles or foil.

SPREAD 2 Tbsp. of the whipped topping onto top of each cupcake. Decorate with sprinkles as desired. Store in refrigerator.

Tasty enough but the marbles didn't really make them dent in to resemble hearts

Tasty, but they did not look like hearts once baked. Very disappointing.

I found these hard and they didn't really look like hearts. They tasted good though.

These are yummy!! I've made them a few times now. For St. Patrick's day, I don't shape with the foil ball, and I use lime jello and green sprinkles. They are SO yummy, and a big hit too!!

Made this one on Valentines Day for a school class. The kids were amazed that the cakes were in heart shapes. I was a star. . . thank you!!

Very tasty. I didn't like the idea of using cool whip for the icing, so I used a cream cheese icing from another recipe which turned out well.

My Grandsons and I made these for his SR Kindergarten class, I did not make them heart shaped, however I did use light jello ahd light cool whip. He got a sticker for the best treat ever! So I guess the panel has rated this not myself!

Thanks so much to the person who gave the suggestion for shaping the muffin cups 1st with the tin foil balls, it really does make a difference. You could use this tip for any muffin/cupcake recipe.
