It doesn't take the luck of the Irish to make these St. Patty's Day treats look so sweet -- just a clever baking technique.

INGREDIENTS
- Cupcake batter
- Cupcake tins and liners
- Aluminum foil
- White frosting
- Green food coloring
- Toothpick
- Green licorice ; we used Twizzlers Rainbow Twists sold in a pack with other colors
INSTRUCTIONS
Place paper liners in 32 standard muffin cups, then fill each halfway with the batter.
Clover Cupcakes - Step 2 For each cupcake, roll three balls of foil (ours were 2/3 inch in diameter) and insert them evenly around the perimeter between the liner and the tin to make clover leaves.
Bake the cupcakes for a few minutes less than the package suggests (because there's less batter per cup than usual), or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Allow the cupcakes to cool, then remove them from the tin.
Cover each with green frosting (our ratio was 1 teaspoon of green food coloring to one 16-ounce can of white frosting).
Use a toothpick to draw leaf veins, and insert a 2-inch-long piece of green licorice for a stem.
