Preparation

Step 1

*Frosting:*
Beat butter until smooth, gradually add powdered sugar, alternate with tonic water. Stir in vanilla. Frosting should be stiff for these cupcakes.

*Glow in the Dark:*
Mix jello and boiling water, stir 2 minutes until dissolved. Add tonic water and stir. Place in large bowl with ice water and stir until jello is cool to touch. Remove jello from ice bath.

Remove a couple cupcakes from freezer at a time and dip in jello mixture.

Place back in freezer, repeat dipping and freezing process 4-6 times.

Notes:

Be sure to have your frosting stiff, not super stiff though, it will work better when dipping.
