Storm Trooper Cupcakes
Ingredients
- White box cake mix, or your favorite homemade cake recipe
- White Buttercream Frosting
- Marshmallows
- Black Wilton Frosting, or a Food Grade Marker in Black
Instructions
- Mix your cake mix as directed or use your favorite homemade cake recipe. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Line your cupcake tin with white cupcake holders and set aside.
- Spoon the cake batter into the cupcake liners (filling about ½ way each) and bake for about 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool completely, and then frost.
- While the cupcakes are cooling prepare your storm troopers (marshmallows). After testing these, for me I found it was much easier to make the faces with the black food grade marker. First add a line across the top, and then make two triangles for the eyes. Add the mouth and breathing lines off to the side to complete your Storm Trooper.
- Generously frost each cupcake. For ease in frosting, I use this cupcake decorating set. Begin frosting on an outside edge, working toward the center in a circular motion. Carefully add your Storm Troopers in the center of the cupcake.
- Enjoy!
