New Year’s Eve Cupcakes
What better way to ring in the New Year than with cupcakes? To decorate, simply mold Airhead candy
Ingredients
- 1 can (16 ounces) vanilla frosting
- Cupcakes of your choice
- Assorted jimmies
- Green, white and red Air Heads candies
Directions
Frost cupcakes and sprinkle with jimmies. If necessary, microwave candies on high for 3- to 5-second intervals to soften. Form green candies into champagne bottles. Cut squares from white candies to form labels; press gently onto bottles to attach. Brush bottle tops with pearl dust.
Shape white candy into champagne flutes. Cut thin strips of red candies; twist to form streamers. Decorate cupcakes with bottles, champagne flutes and streamers as desired. Store in an airtight container. Yield: varies.
