Owl Cupcakes
These chocolate and vanilla cupcakes are super cute and easy to make! They're sure to be a "hoot" at your next fall get-together!
Servings: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
- 12 chocolate or vanilla cupcakes store-bought or homemade
- 1 tub chocolate or vanilla frosting
- 24 Golden or Chocolate Oreo sandwich cookies
- 24 Junior mints
- 12 orange Reese’s Pieces or M&Ms candies
Instructions
- Buy or bake cupcakes. Once the cupcakes are cooled top with frosting. (If domed, slice off the top, you want a fairly flat surface to decorate.)
- Gently twist all the Oreo cookies in half. Place two halves with the crème filling side up on top of the frosted cupcakes to make the “eyes.” Place a dot of frosting on the back of two Junior mints to make the “pupils.”
- Score the center of 12 Oreo cookies without crème filling and gently break in half for the “eyebrows.” Attach two eyebrows on each cupcake.
- Place an orange candy in between the “eyes” to make a “beak.”
Notes
These cupcakes are best eaten the same day they are made as the cookies can soften.
