Easter Ideas V: Little Lamb Cupcakes
April 4, 2010 by 1 Comment
SO CUTE! These are just adorable!!! I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. : ) Oh, and you might like to swap the marsh-mellow out for a donut hole for extra yumminess (and a few extra calories). Yum!
Directions:
Frost cupcake. Place the large marshmallow in the center. Lightly frost candy eyes and press onto the marshmallow. Frost the back of the jujube candy and put below eyes to for a nose. Frost the short piece of licorice lightly and press underneath the nose to make the mouth. Press mini-marshmallows all around the cupcakes and the face to make the lambs coat. Frost the tips of the pink jelly beans to make ears. Stick the purple jelly beans in the front and back of the cupcake for feet. Curl the long piece of licorice and press into frosting to make the lamb’s tail.
Fluff Frosting:
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- 5 cups confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff
- Pinch fine salt
Whisk the milk and vanilla extract together in a small bowl.
Slowly beat the butter and sugar, in another medium bowl, with an electric mixer until incorporated. Raise the speed to high and mix until light and fluffy, about 5 to 7 minutes. (Occasionally turn the mixer off, and scrape the sides of the bowl down with a rubber spatula.) Add the fluff and salt and reduce the speed to low. Add the milk and vanilla mixture, scrape the bowl down, and mix until fully incorporated. Raise the mixer to high and beat briefly until fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes. Use immediately.
Yield: 3 3/4 cups
This ingenious cupcake recipe came from the folks over at Food Network! Check them out for info on how to make just about everything in the kitchen. : )

These Easter Egg Dippers would be a great recipe for the kids to help out with. Let me know if your family enjoyed this fun recipe. : )
Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
- 1 (10 ounce) package regular marshmallows
- 6 cups KELLOGG’S® RICE KRISPIES® cereal
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate morsels or milk chocolate morsels

- Multi-colored sprinkles
Directions:
- In large saucepan melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
- Add KELLOGG’S® RICE KRISPIES® cereal. Stir until well coated.
- Using 1/4-cup measuring cup coated with cooking spray divide warm cereal mixture into portions. Using buttered hands shape each portion into 2 1/2- x 1 1/2-inch egg shapes. (Or, coat insides of plastic snap-apart Easter eggs with cooking spray. Press cereal mixture into eggs. Remove cereal mixture from plastic eggs.) Cool.
- In small saucepan combine chocolate morsels and shortening. Cook over low heat until melted, stirring constantly. Dip bottoms of cereal eggs into chocolate. Decorate with sprinkles. Place on wax-paper-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until chocolate is firm. Individually wrap in plastic wrap. Best if served the same day.
