Snow men cupcakes

I haven't had much time to bake anything lately, but I really wanted to make something for christmas. A friend of mine showed me a picture of melted snowmen cookies that were very cute and funny, so I decided to make snowmen cupcakes!

Another friend of mine invited me and my boyfriend on friday (Dec 23) to make a Brioche and to help me make the cupcakes. We were so hungry by the time he brioche was done, that we forgot to take pics, but here, have a picture of it just before we put it in the oven!


The cupcake cups were a little tall, I think they're actually for muffins... Anyway, this is the second time I try this vanilla cupcake recipe and it was as good as the first time!


We made three batches of those, and while the last batch was in the oven, I started to decorate the snowmen heads: marshmallows with black icing.

Oh look, you can see some of the Brioche in that pic!

I started with neutral ones, with eyes and mouths of "coal", then we got excited and my friend and boyfriend kept giving me ideas! Toon Link that ended up looking like Michael Jackson, a Sheikah Stone, Doug, money eyes, a snowman in love, Harry Potter and Voldemort (which ended up looking like a chinese man), a zombie, dead snowmen (burned marshmallows).

Then I made the frosting, and they went to buy some oreo cookies for the hats... which ended up being berrets 'cause we couldn't figure our how to make a top hat.

They added the noses, we added the hats and frosted the cupcakes and...

Neutral snowmen, three eyed snowman, Harry Potter and Money eyes.

Snow man in love.

Burnt snowman

Zombie snowman.

Elvis snowman.

We even made a Bert!

Happy Holidays!!
