Ingredients

  • 24 baby cupcakes
  • 2 cups icing sugar
  • 100 g butter softened
  • red and blue food colouring I used Wilton gel colours
  • 12 jaffas
  • 28 white chocolate buttons
  • 6 mini Oreos cut in half
  • 12 mini choc-chip cookies
  • something to draw on the eyeballs
  • Red and blue coloured sprinkles optional.

Instructions

  • Make the icing by beating the butter until smooth.
  • Add the icing sugar a little at a time and continue to beat. Add a little milk to get it to a good consistency.
  • Divide the icing in half and colour one half blue and one half red.
  • Use a star tip nozzle to pipe rough stars onto the top of each cupcake. Make it rough so it looks like fur.
  • Sprinkle the top of the cupcake with the same coloured sprinkles.
  • Draw eyeballs on the white chocolate buttons.
  • To make The Cookie Monster, attache the 'eyes' then add a choc-chip cookie for his mouth. Crumble some of the cookies first.
  • To make Elmo, add the eyes then stick a Jaffa in the middle to make his nose.
  • Cut the Oreos in half and place half on the cupcake to make his mouth.
