Ingredients

1 box yellow cake mix
food coloring optional
2 sticks butter softened
3 cups powdered sugar
6-8 tbsp heavy cream or milk
1 bag candy coated chocolate eggs
chocolate shavings for garnish

Instructions

Prepare cake according to package directions, making cupcakes. Use food coloring to color cake however you'd like. Let cool completely.
To prepare frosting, beat butter, powdered sugar and cream in a stand or electric mixer until smooth. Frost on cooled cupcakes. Top centers with chocolate shavings and top with 3 candy eggs.

Notes

To shave chocolate, take a block of chocolate and use a vegetable peeler to peel chocolate. Use the curls and bits of chocolate to place on top of frosting.
