These cupcakes are perfect for any kids Easter party. I used to send these to school with my kids to share with class for Easter parties--the kids went nuts over them. Sure to be a hit with the under 7 crowd. They look like mini easter baskets--so cute!
Ingredients:
-
12
cupcakes
, baked and lightly frosted
(any flavor)
-
1 (14 ounce) package
flaked coconut
-
3 -6 drops
green food coloring
-
48
jelly beans
Directions:
1
In a large ziplock bag, place coconut with a few drops of green food coloring.
2
Shake until coconut is light green.
3
Place some green coconut on each cupcake, pressing firmly so it adheres to the frosting.
4
Place a few jellybeans on each cupcake.
5
Bend pipe cleaners in a arch.
6
Place into cupcake to resemble a basket handle (you may have to cut pipe cleaners in half if they are long).
7
The final cupcake should resemble an easter basket.
8
Hint: I use 2 cupcake papers for each cupcake so the "basket" is a pretty color.
