Expert Tips

If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

This is a great idea for a one day event that you make the day of but unfortunately the recipe did not mention that the cereal would stale and it did not occur to me so know I have 18 cupcakes topped with stale cereal.

I made these for my employees and co-worker's for St. Patrick's Day and it was a huge hit! A lot of them had not had Lucky Charms cereal in years so it was not only tasty, but nostalgic! My only suggestion is to serve quickly after topping with the cereal....if left out, the cereal got real chewy.
