Chocolate icing
- In a large bowl, beat butter, vanilla, milk and cocoa powder with mixer.
- Begin adding powdered sugar and beat until creamy and smooth. Add more milk if the mixture is too thick.
Finishing
- Frost cupcakes with chocolate icing, then use the small round tip and chocolate icing to create feathers, and leaf tip to create ears.
- Add chocolate sandwich cookies with chocolate covered candies for eyes, and a yellow oblong-shaped candy for the nose.
CHEF'S NOTES
Put a chocolate peanut butter candy into the center of each cupcake before baking to give it a tasty center once it's baked.
This fun idea comes from Hamilton Beach. Their handmixer is perfect for initiating your little monsters into the art of making and decorating cupcakes. It comes in a storage box with accessories and a book full of recipes and decorating ideas for every occasion.
