Frog Cupcakes

Ready to jump into Spring? Thses cute little frog cupcakes should help get you in the Spring spirit!

Frog Cupcakes

Make cupcakes any way you want. For these, I used a yellow cake mix and prepared them according to package instructions. Allow cupcakes to cool completely.

You will also need:
Marshmallows
Brown M&M'S
Red icing- (I buy this from the store because it's really hard to get a pretty red icing at home)

For the icing:

Buttercream Icing

2 sticks butter, softened

6-8 cups powdered sugar, sifted

1/2 cup whole milk

1/2 tsp vanilla

pinch of salt

green food coloring

Cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and milk, alternating. Add in salt and vanilla. If the icing is too thin, add some powdered sugar. If it's too thick, add a touch of milk.

Ice the cupcakes with your green frosting. While the icing is still "wet" looking you are going to add the eyes. Take a large marshmallows and cut them into thirds. Place two eyes on the cupcake and then add two brown M&M's for the pupils. Snip off the tip of the red icing and pipe on the mouth.

 

I love how cute these frogs came out! They would definitely add a bit of fun to any party!
