I don't know what it is about Mickey Mouse, but I swear when I see things that resemble him, it just makes everything 10 times better! For example, these cupcakes aren't just regular cupcakes...they are cute Mickey Mouse themed. From the red and white polka dot paper baking cups to the mini Oreos thet represent Mickey's ears.

I made these cupcakes for a friend's birthday and they were a MAJOR HIT. The birthday girl herself had three cupcakes, haha oops! These cupcakes have two secret weapons for why you can't stop from having a second or third.

My first secret is putting some crushed Oreo pieces in the Devil's food cake mix. It is such a yummy surprise and the little bit of "crunch" you get is what makes the boxed mix tastier. My second secret is that I use Pillsbury Vanilla Marshmallow fluffy frosting. The icing is supposed to be used on top of the premade funfetti cupcake mix, but it's just way too good to be restricted to only funfetti.

You can make these cute cupcakes without even really knowing how to bake. Just follow the instructions on the box mix, put the icing on the cupcakes ONCE THEY HAVE COOLED, and add the mini Oreos (after you take out the cream middle).
