OK…. we like to play around here. Today, we have a different kind of Easter Chick Cupcake than we shared last week… it’s SUPER easy for the littles to help you make and pretty stinkin’ cute!
Easter Chick Cupcakes
Ingredients:
- 24 large lemon heads ( or yellow gumball)
- 1 Tablespoon mini chocolate chips melted (toothpick to apply)
- 6 orange Starburst
- 24 frosted cupcakes
To create these cute little Easter Chicks you will need to first make the chicks. Unwrap your lemon heads, they are NOT perfectly round. They have one side that is more flat, that is where you want them to set so you can work on them and not have them roll all over the table.
Unwrap the starburst, use a sharp knife to cut the four corners off, each one of these corners will now become the “beak” of your chick. Take your thumb and your pointer finger and press the triangle shaped piece of starburst onto the lemon head. You can then take the knife and cut the beak horizontal to make it look like it is open.
To make the eyes, melt chocolate chips use a toothpick to dab melted chocolate above the beak to create eyes. Allow them to dry before you add them to the cupcake (only takes a minute or two). Frost your cupcakes, put your chicks on top and you have an adorable Easter Chick Cupcake.
Tip: if you can not find large lemon heads you can use large yellow gumballs instead.
