Ingredients

Filling

  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 (3.4 ounce) package cheesecake-flavored pudding mix (such as Jell-O®)

Frosting

  • 7 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • ½ cup frozen raspberry lemonade concentrate, thawed

Cupcakes

  • 1 (18.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • 1 ¼ cups water
  • 1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/3 cup canola oil

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.

Step 2
Mix white cake mix, water, lemon-flavored gelatin mix, egg whites, and canola oil together in a bowl using an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds. Turn speed to medium and beat batter for 2 minutes. Fill muffin cups about 1/2-full with batter.

Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Cool cupcakes completely, at least 30 minutes.

Step 4
Beat milk and cheesecake-flavored pudding mix together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes. Transfer pudding to a pastry bag fitted with an icing tip. Break an opening into each cupcake using the icing tip and gently squeeze pudding into cupcake until it begins to swell.

Step 5
Beat confectioners' sugar, butter, and lemonade concentrate together in a bowl using an electric mixer until frosting is smooth and thickened; spread onto cupcakes.

Cook’s Note:

Using a tip and pastry bag to make icing rosettes looks nice, but you can also just frost the cupcakes with a knife.
