Go Cougars!

So in honor of tonight's big Sweet 16 game I made some awesome treats in the Cougar blue and white. These of course can be adapted to match whatever team or color scheme you are going for. Let's hope these bring us good luck! This idea came from www.ourbestbites.com.

Blue and White Cupcakes
white cake mix
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Mix everything together until smooth. The batter will be thicker than a normal cake batter. The thicker batter helps with the color distribution and produces a delightfully delicious cup cake! Divide the batter into 2 different bowls. Add food coloring until you get your desired richness of color. Alternate spooning blue and white into each cupcake paper until 1/2-2/3 full. use a toothpick to swirl the colors together a little bit. Bake according to directions on box. Let cool, then frost. I just used white frosting with blue sprinkles, but there are lots of cool frosting ideas out there too.
thick batter
Alternate blobs of each color.
They're pretty enough even without frosting
but then they would probably be called muffins.
