Super Easy Owl Cupcakes

 


Ingredients

1 premade chocolate cake mix or your favorite chocolate cake recipe
12 brown cupcake liners
1 favorite chocolate frosting recipe
24 Oreo cookies, split open with creamy filling intact (you should have 12 cream-topped cookies)
24 brown M&Ms and 12 orange M&Ms

Directions

Make cake according to package instructions. Line cupcake liners and pour batter into individual cups until 2/3 full. Bake according to packaged instructions. Allow to cool completely before generously frosting top of cupcakes.

Split Oreos in half crosswise with a paring knife and retain the cookie with the cream.

Using two cream-topped cookies, gently press them (cream side up) to the frosting, butting them up next to each other.

Using some of the left over frosting, lightly dab a small amount to the backside of a brown M&M and place one to each Oreo half to form eyes.

Turning an orange M&M on it's side, gently press it down into the frosting in between the cookies eyes to form the beak.

Peak the icing a little bit to form a couple of little ears.

Repeat for remaining cupcakes.
