Reindeer Cupcakes

These reindeer cupcakes are so cute and easy to make for the kids, or for  an activity for kids in the kitchen!

 
 
12 reindeer including Rudolph with his red nose!
 
 
What you need:
 
  • Chocolate cupcakes (x 12) - base
  • Chocolate buttercream icing - face background
  • Vanilla buttercream icing - eyes background
  • Mini pretzels (x 24) - horns
  • White Chocolate melts (x 12) - mouth background
  • Mini M & M's (11 x brown ones, 1 x red one for Rudolph) - noses
  • Chocolate Chips (x 24) - eyes
  • Melted chocolate - melt a handful of chocolate chips in a ziplock bag placed in the microwave in 20 second intervals on high, squishing the chocolate together between your fingers in between microwaving, until all melted, then cut a small hole in the corner and pipe the mouth


Assemble to look as the photo above and enjoy!!
 
This can be made with any cupcake and buttercream icing recipe or packet mix (kids will probably pick off the top chocolate bits and give their parents the rest to finish!). If you're short on time in the past I have also used Betty Crocker's ready to go frosting available from the baking section in the supermarket :)
