– Box Cake Mix (your choice)  – White Candy Melts (for the eyes) – Ziploc Bag  – Chocolate Chips (for the eyes) – Can of whipped white frosting  – Blue food paste – Powdered Sugar  – Almond Extract  – Cookie (your choice)

INGREDIENTS:

Make the eyes from scratch… using white candy melts (melted in a zippy bag – snipping a corner to control how I put it onto the Silicone Baking Mat)….and chocolate chips for the center of the eyes

Bake cupcakes… and let them cool. Cut a “slit” into the cupcakes — this will be his mouth and hold the cookie.

Take a can of whipped white frosting — Add a little almond extract, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, and some Wilton blue food paste coloring.

Add the whip to a pastry bag, with a star tip and then frost the cupcakes…  Then add a pair of eyes…

To complete the look... add a cookie to its mouth...using that slit
