Ok so I know I promised to post my fondant cupcakes on the blog....but I have YET to have time to make fondant icing! I think I was aiming a little high with fondant in grad school! BUT I am definitely making these on Thursday with Betho. We are all going on our traditional Easter camping trip Friday and Lance and I are going to Austin Thursday to stay with the Girod's so we can all go together Friday to Pedernalis Falls! I am soooo excited. Anyway, these cupcakes are so easy and I really will post these on Thursday night after we make them! Aren't the so cute!! Happy Spring!!
Here is the recipe!
container (16 ounces) vanilla frosting
2 cups flaked coconut
12 unfrosted cupcakes
12 plain donut holes
12 large marshmallows
6 pink jelly beans, halved crosswise
Chocolate sprinkles
Miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
1. Tint frosting pink or blue, using 4 drops red or 4 drops NEON blue food color. Place coconut in resealable plastic bag. Add 4 drops red or 4 drops NEON blue food color to coconut in bag; shake until coconut is evenly tinted.
2. Spread top of each cupcake with tinted frosting. Press each cupcake into tinted coconut to cover top completely. Spread donut holes with remaining frosting. Press a donut hole into top of each cupcake to form the bunny’s head.
3. For the ears, cut a 1/4-inch slice off the flat ends of each marshmallow to make 24 slices. Dip cut sides of the marshmallow slices into the coconut until completely covered. (Reserve remaining marshmallow pieces.) Attach 2 marshmallow slices to the head of each bunny with frosting to create ears.
4. Press a jelly bean half into the face for the nose and sprinkles for the whiskers. Use the chocolate chips for the eyes. Press the plain marshmallow pieces into the cupcake for the belly.
