EASY DINOSAUR CUPCAKES
My son wanted a dinosaur cake for his birthday,
so I tried and here's what i came up with.
What you will need:
Time: 2 hours
1 box cake
1 container of frosting
1 pk star sprinkles
12 pk cupcake liners
12 pk small dinosaurs
cupcake pan
INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1: Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line cupcake pan with paper liners, set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk batter, following instructions on cake box.
Step 2: Divide the batter among liners, fill liners about 2/3 full. Bake on the middle rack for approximately 20 minutes. Transfer to wire rack to cool.
Step 3: Make frosting from scratch or buy a ready made frosting. (Like I did).
Step 4: Use a piping bag with a star shaped tip. Assemble bag and tip. Large tips make swirls, small tips are better for writing and decorating OR make your own bag by cutting a small hole at the bottom of a sandwich bag ( I always use a sandwich bag because you just have to toss it when you're through )
Step 5: Pipe swirls onto cupcake. Position bag over the middle of the cupcake. Then pipe a cone. Start from the outside and move towards the centre. When you reach the top, stop and pull up slowly. Sprinkle on stars and place toy dinosaur on top.
