Ingredients

Instructions

  • Bake cupcakes and allow them to cool completely.
  • While cupcakes are baking and cooling, prepare the frosting and tint it blue with gel food coloring.
  • Use a spatula to spread a thin layer of icing on top of each cupcake.
  • Fill a piping bag with blue icing and attach the grass tip (Wilton Tip # 233).
  • Start piping from the outer edges of the cupcake and work your way inwards until top is fully covered in "fur."
  • Use a sharp knife to make a single cut on the lower half of the cupcake.
  • Stick a few mini chocolate chip cookies or a medium sized cookie in this cut. Toss some cookie crumbs around the mouth, if you like.
  • Stick candy eyes near the top of each cupcake. Enjoy.
