Our Banana Pudding Cupcakes Recipe is a short cut recipe that starts with a yellow cake mix. Semi-homemade recipes are perfect for beginner bakers. You don’t need a lot of tools, and it won’t make a big mess either – which I love!

You can always find bananas in my home. We love them, and of course, that means we love banana pudding too. If you love banana pudding as much as we do, then these cupcakes are for you!

They combine delicious banana pudding, cake, and frosting. And since you’re relying on supermarket short cuts, they won’t take too long to make either.

They are perfect if you’re looking for a sweet treat, but don’t feel like making banana bread or banana cream pie.
