My kids and I love the party chip/confetti cupcakes and the rainbow chip frosting. A while back we went to a party and someone had make these amazing confetti cookies. I had to have the recipe! I tracked down the person at the party that had brought them and asked for the recipe, she laughed and said haven't you ever seen this recipe on the side of the box of cake mix? I was dumbfounded, I thought she made it up. They have since become our favorite but I added some twists and took it a step further because I really missed the party chip frosting. Something about those tiny colored chips I really missed!
