Whoo’s hungry? I saw these Owl Cupcakes on Pinterest a couple weeks ago and ooh’d and aah’d thinking how darling they were. I kinda have a cray-cray love for owls. They just make me smile. I even have a Pinterest board for them. Anywho, I clicked through the spotted pin to find no tutorial, just a pic. Boo! However, after a closer look, I realized it wasn’t too hard to see that the ‘secret’ ingredients are Oreo Cookies and M&M’s. Woo-Hoo! Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate!
As I’ve mentioned a time or two before, Halloween isn’t my thing — but FALL is. Growing up in a pastors home, instead of Halloween parties, we had Harvest Parties. Tell me the little cuties wouldn’t be a hit! They’re almost a little too cute to eat! {giggle}
Let’s see how easy they really are to whip up. Ready? Let’s do it!
Easy Owl Cupcakes
Ingredients
- Chocolate Cake Mix plus ingredients needed
- Chocolate Frosting
- Cupcake Liners
- Oreo Cookies
- Brown and Orange M&Ms
Instructions
-
Prepare chocolate cupcakes according package.
-
Frost with chocolate frosting.
-
Carefully split an Oreo, using the side with the icing for one eye. Repeat for second eye.
-
Gently press both Oreo halves onto the cupcake.
-
Place one brown M&M on each Oreo half. Use a little icing to hold them in place.
-
Place an orange M&M on its side between the eyes.
-
Peak the icing a bit for a couple of little ears.
Serve and eat! Can you see what I’m saying about super easy? Wouldn’t they make the perfect festive treat for your co-workers or an after school treat? Whoooo wouldn’t be tickled silly for one of these sweet owl cupcakes?
Gosh…Those big eyes just grab your attention and make you smile, right?
Happy Fall, y’all!! Happy baking too. {wink}
