Turkey Cupcakes
Ingredients:
1 batch of my Death by Chocolate Cupcakes or one box (15 ounces) Devil’s Food cake mix, prepared according to directions and baked as cupcakes
1 batch of my homemade Dark Chocolate Frosting or 2 cans chocolate frosting
1 bag candy corn
Candy eyes or mini M & M’s
Directions:
Bake 24 cupcakes according to box directions. Let cupcakes cool. Frost each cupcake by hand with Dark Chocolate Frosting. Use a piping bag to pipe on or a small ice cream scoop to scoop some of the frosting on each cupcake to make a “blob” of frosting for the turkey’s head. Put two candy eyes or M & M’s on the blob of frosting for the eyes. Place 6 to 8 candy corn in the back of the cupcake to look like feathers. Cut some of the candy corn just so the orange part is showing and use as the turkey’s nose. So cute! Have the kids help bake and decorate these. What fun!
