How to Make Pistachio Dream Cupcakes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, pudding mix, 2 large egg whites, 1/2 cup fresca, and 1/2 cup water.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes, until the batter is smooth and well combined.
  4. Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. While the cupcakes are cooling, prepare the frosting: In a separate bowl, beat the frosting until light and fluffy.
  8. Add almond extract, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired flavor is achieved (start with 1 teaspoon and adjust to taste).
  9. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them evenly with the almond-infused frosting.
  10. Enjoy your Pistachio Dream Cupcakes!
