Snowman Cupcakes
I think I’ll always be a kid at heart. These snowman cupcakes were so fun to make (and of course so fun to eat)! I think I’m going to have to make them every year now, and I think my kids would totally agree with that.
With these I made chocolate cupcakes and topped them with a buttercream frosting. Basically you can use any cupcake recipe you want, but I would highly recommend using the recipe for vanilla buttercream frosting below, because it is basically the best food ever (to say the least :))!
Ingredients
Chocolate Cupcakes
1/2 cup unsalted butter , diced into 5 pieces
2 oz . bittersweet chocolate (60%), chopped
3/4 cup + 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
Vanilla Buttercream Frosting , recipe here*
12 marshmallow snowmen , instructions follow
