- 4 each chocolate chip cookies
- 16 each white chocolate melts
- 16 each brown M&Ms
- 1 tube white or yellow icing For decorating the eyes
Instructions
Preparation
- Prepare the cupcakes according to the directions on the cake mix box. This recipe makes about 8 decorated cupcakes with the amount of blue icing provided.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before decorating.
Decorating
- Attach the star tip to the can of blue icing. Start in the middle of the cupcake, press down on the tip, and pull up to create a fur-like texture.
- Break the chocolate chip cookies in half. Cut a small slit in the frosting where you want to insert the cookie and press the cookie half into the slit at an angle.
- Stick the white chocolate melts where you want the eyes on the cupcake. Add a small drop of white or yellow icing to each white melt and attach a brown M&M on top.
Notes
Ensure cupcakes are completely cooled before decorating to allow perfect icing adherence. Using a star tip for the blue icing creates the desired fuzzy appearance.
