If you guys are anything like me you are running around today trying to finish up last minute errands for Christmas. So here’s a quick recipe for Pistachio Cupcakes. I’m a sucker for anything pistachio. I love these because they are festive and have one of the fluffiest textures in a cupcake that I’ve ever had.
Just click HERE for the recipe or on one of the photos below.
Or make them into little Christmas trees. I made some yellow stars out of fondant.

Love this idea! They look gorgeous and my bf and I both love pistachios!
Pudding mix?? Craziness! Those look delicious though – I have always enjoyed pistachios in desserts, but have never had them in a cupcake before! Love the color!
i wouldn’t have thought to use the pudding mix in frosting like that – the color is terrific!
