Cue JAWS music…
When deciding what to take for our Jimmy Buffett tailgating experience, I of course thought of making cupcakes! I made the Margarita cupcakes but also wanted something more traditional… I saw a picture of some beach and shark cupcakes and thought they were really cute and very fitting.
As usual, when I make more than 1 kind of recipe, I make one from scratch and one from a box. I made the margarita cupcakes from scratch and used the WW Diet Coke method on these babies.
Diet Coke Cupcakes – 2 WW pts
1 box cake mix – I used Devil’s Food
1 can of diet coke – any variety will do – I used Diet Dr Pepper
1 egg white (to help hold it all together)
Follow directions on box for cake or cupcakes except use only ingredients listed above.
I used store bought frosting that and dyed it blue.

This looks delicious! I love that you guys plowed through it as an afternoon snack!
I love using veggies as a healthy substitute for pasta. My favorite is a little more obvious – spaghetti squash!
Also, I got your DM about the photo. I’ve been crazy busy but I’ll email it to everyone tonight!
What a great salad! It’s perfect for saying goodbye to summer 🙂
This looks so good! Yummy produce is really the only thing I’ll miss about summer time. I came across your site earlier today while searching for a pumpkin spice cheesecake brownie recipe (which I plan on making tomorrow btw). You have some great recipes and I’ll definitely be returning!
What a great vegetarian dish. With all those gorgeous colors it’s a feast for the eyes as well as for the palate.
What a gorgeous dish. It looks super delicious too.
YUM! Great way to (healthily) soak up the last bits of summer flavors! Looks great…
