March 10, 2020 by Mary & Martha Home Office

With Easter around the corner, we are all for an easy recipe that brings seasonal flare to a delicious treat. We’re obsessed with the recipe Nancy C. made just for us (can you tell our All Creatures Great & Small furry friends are enjoying them too! 😉 ).

Prep: 10 minutes
Cook: 15 minutes
Serving: 24 cupcakes

Ingredients:
  • 1 (15-oz) box of your favorite yellow or chocolate cake mix
  • 1 (16-oz) container ready-made vanilla or chocolate frosting
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes, tinted with green food coloring
    OR
    1 (7-oz) container chocolate sprinklers
  • 1 (10 to 13-oz) package of speckled mini robin eggs, mini chocolate eggs, or jelly bean eggs
Instructions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line two muffin pans with 24 paper liners; set aside.
  2. Mix cake mix according to package directions and spoon batter into the lined muffin pans. Bake as directed. Let cupcakes cool completely after baking.
  3. When cooled, frost cupcakes with about 1 Tbsp. frosting per cupcake, spreading it thicker in the center.
  4. Place the tinted green coconut flakes OR chocolate sprinkles in a shallow small bowl. Dip the tops of all the frosted cupcakes into either the coconut flakes or the chocolate sprinkles, then top the center of each cupcake with 3 speckled candy eggs, pushing them slightly into the frosting to help hold their place.

For a great presentation, you can place the cupcakes on our Simply Elegant Dessert Pedestal, available to purchase from your Consultant or right here!
