RECIPE FROM SANDRA LEE'S BAKE SALE COOKBOOK:
BANANA SPLIT CUPCAKES
Prep: 25 minutes
Bake: 16 minutes
Cool: 30 minutes
Oven Temperature: 350°F
Makes 24 cupcakes

INGREDIENTS:
1 package (18.25 ounces) banana supreme cake mix, Duncan Hines ®
1 1/3 cups banana-pineapple nectar, Kern’s ®
1/3 cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, Dole ®
1 can (12 ounces) whipped whipped cream frosting, Betty Crocker ®
2 tablespoons powdered sugar, C&H ®
1 teaspoon imitation strawberry extract, McCormick ®
2 drops red food coloring, McCormick ®
1 can (12 ounces) whipped vanilla frosting, Betty Crocker ®
1 can (12 ounces) whipped chocolate frosting, Betty Crocker ®
1/2 cup nut topping, Fisher ®
24 maraschino cherries with stems, drained and patted dry

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line twenty-four 2 1/2-inch muffin cups with paper bake cups; set pans aside.
 
2. In a large bowl, beat cake mix, nectar, oil, and eggs with an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds. Scrape down side of bowl; beat for 2 minutes on medium. Add crushed pineapple; stir until combined. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
 
3. Bake for 16 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centers comes out clean. Cool cupcakes in muffin cups on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Remove cupcakes from muffin cups; cool completely on rack.
 
4. For the strawberry frosting, in a medium bowl, stir together whipped cream frosting, powdered sugar, strawberry extract, and red food coloring until smooth.
 
5. To frost cupcakes, insert a large round tip into a large pastry bag. Fill pastry bag half full with equal amounts of the strawberry, vanilla, and chocolate frostings, placing each frosting in a wide strip along the side of the bag (you’ll have three separate strips of frosting). Pipe a large swirl of frosting on top of each cupcake, refilling pastry bag with frostings as needed. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the nut topping on each cupcake; top each cupcake with a maraschino cherry.

Baking can sometimes we intimidating to me since you have to be so much more exact with your measurements. Sandra Lee's semihomemade cooking has always put my mind at ease, however, because she just seems to have such a way about presenting her dishes that you feel like a chef! I would love to give this coobook a try!
