Tips & Ideas:

For a quick icing, place a small candy bar on top of each cupcake right after removing the pan from the oven. The heat from the cupcake will melt the chocolate, which then can be spread easily over the top.

Rudolph Cupcakes

Our son needed reindeer treats for his class but forgot to tell me abut it until the day before. With no ready-made decorations on hand, I had to improvise. We stuck animal crackers in the cupcakes for antlers and used other sweets for the eyes and noses. All the students loved them.
—Karen Gardiner, Eutaw, Alabama

INGREDIENTS:

1 package (18-1/4 ounces) cake mix of your choice
1 can (16 ounces) chocolate frosting
48 animal crackers
24 miniature marshmallows, halved
48 miniature chocolate chips or raisins
24 red jelly beans

DIRECTIONS:

Prepare and bake cake according to package directions for cupcakes, using foil or paper-lined muffin cups. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

Frost cupcake tops. Insert two animal crackers into each cupcake for antlers. For the eyes, place two marshmallow halves, cut side up, with a chocolate chip in the center of each. Add a jelly bean for nose. Yield: 2 dozen.
