Cupcakes are hard to resist, but when they're cute and adorable like these Cookie Monster cupcakes - game over! After watching Sesame Street with my daughter, I thought I would try to make some of the furry creatures she loves into cupcakes. I'm thinking of making her a Sesame Street themed birthday cake for her birthday, so these cupcakes were excellent practice.
They're really easy to make and as you can see, they look fabulous. I used a basic chocolate cake recipe to make the cupcakes. You can either bake your own cookies or use store bought, but make sure you cut some of the cookie off so it fits in his mouth. For his big cookie ingesting mouth, simply cut into the cupcake, squeeze it open, and insert the cookie. Next, I used buttercream dyed blue and a start tip to pipe the fur.
Mmmmmm....cookie! Next on my list is Elmo!
