Easter Egg Cupcake Toppers

Greeting the first day of Spring with a warm welcome.

To make these sweet and easy Easter cupcakes, I used a boxed cake mix 
and canned frosting which I tinted green.

I used Twizzlers pull 'n' peel for the grass and Jelly Belly beans for..well, the jelly beans.

I made tiny little cookies using my egg cutter.

I used Airheads Xtremes to decorate the sweet little egg cookies.
To see Airheads Candy on Pinterest, click here!

I also used these sweet mini-cupcake liners from Wilton.
Bake cupcakes and let cool.
Roll out cookie dough. Cut cookies and place on parchment lined pan. 
Chill 15 minutes. Bake @ 375 for 7-9 minutes. Let cool completely.
Place two strips of Airheads Xtreme candies on cutting surface.
Use the same cutter as for the cookies and press firmly into candy until cut through.
Brush cookie with corn syrup and attach candy. Let dry.
Two strips of Airheads Xtreme candies will yield six tiny eggs.
Frost cupcake. Place Easter egg on top.
Press in candy grass and place jelly beans.
That's it. Cute sweet!
Cut-out Cookie Recipe
1 cup salted butter softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Combine flour and baking powder in separate bowl.
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing well. Gradually add flour mixture on low to combine.
Gently knead just enough to fully incorporate any stray bits of dough. Chill dough.
Roll out on surface lightly dusted with flour.
Cut out cookies and place on parchment lined pan.
Chill the cookie filled pan in frig for 15 minutes. Bake @ 375 for 7-9 minutes.

Wishing You a Safe & Happy Easter

Marshmallow Sour Candy Pops

Marshmallow Sour Candy Pops!
Christmas is over, but you wouldn't know it in our house. You see, we still have our big, fat, awesome tree up! Plus, we may also have our stockings (still) hung by the chimney with care..along with a few other decorations. I know it's crazy, but I will take everything down as soon as I'm finished with this post..I'm sure I will! Anyway, making these candy pops was way more fun.
Happy New Year Everybody!
 Along with marshmallows, you will need: sour skittles, airheads xtremes, green sprinkles and corn syrup. Tools are shown below. Begin by painting sides of marshmallows with corn syrup. It helps to let them sit a few minutes and get *tacky* before adhering the airheads xtremes. Then, paint tops and bottoms of marshmallows with more corn syrup and add sprinkles. Insert lollipop stick and let pops dry before filling tops with sour skittles. *oops! i forgot to include the small paintbrush in the photo below*


 Sweet Sour & Easy, cute little candy pops!
Wishing you a

kind of day!
