    My St. Patricks Day Cupcakes are a fun treat with unique flavor that comes from cereal infused milk. My son and his friends love to celebrate St Patty’s Day with these delicious treats. I love this recipe for st patricks day cupcakes because it’s a quick and easy alternative to boxed cake mix. The kids get such a kick out of them, I get asked to make them every year for a huge St. Patricks parade in our area.
