This cupcake recipe takes two of the plainest baking products and some interesting additions to make a wonderful dessert. Even your pickiest guest won’t guess the original products were a box of cake mix and a can of prepared frosting. In my opinion, a more appropriate name for these yummy delights is “Cinderella Cupcakes” because these two plain Jane products that usually make a very unadorned dessert are transformed and dressed up fancy enough to be served at a ball.
Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
Melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips to blend with a can of regular white frosting to step up the frosting flavor.
The cupcakes have white chocolate pudding mix added to the cake mix along with macadamia nuts. The frosting has white chocolate chips melted and blended into the white frosting. The cupcakes are then topped with toasted coconut.
I wish there was a way to photograph TASTE.
I was going to make White Chocolate Macadamia nut cookies but now I am thinking I am going to make these instead! Thank you for sharing!
These look delicious!
I can just imagine the richness those melted chips add to the frosting. What a great cupcake without much fuss. YUM!!
What delicious looking and no fuss cupcakes! 🙂
They look very good! I love using toasted coconut to top desserts, so pretty!

My hubby loves white chocolate macadamia cookies. I hadn't even thought about doing cupcakes. I like the idea. Although I will want to modify it to be more from scratch.
I love macadamias. Never tried these. Will def be making them. They look really good. Hope they come out as good as yours. Have a great weekend. 🙂
