Every so often I like to make fun little treats with the kids. These DIY owl cupcakes are ADORABLE! They go perfectly with my owl unit study. If you have an owl themed birthday party coming up, these would be easy and fun to make, too! You have to see how simple it is to put these cupcakes together!
DIY Owl Cupcakes
First, you need to gather your ingredients.
- Prepared Cupcakes, any flavor (I just use a boxed mix to keep things simple.)
- 1 Container Blue Frosting
- 1 Container White Frosting
- 1 pkg. Thin Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
- 1 pkg. M&M’s Candy
- 1 pkg. Tic Tacs, orange
- Black Gel Food Coloring
First mix a few drops of the black food coloring into about ¾ cup of white frosting to make a light gray color.
Next, frost half the cupcakes with the blue frosting and the other half with the gray frosting.
- Open cookies gently so the white filling stays on one side of the cookie. Set aside the halves with no filling, you will only use the filled sides.
- Place two cookies on each cupcake to look like big owl eyes. Place an M&M on each cookie to represent the eyeballs.
- Put a Tic Tac on each cupcake right underneath the cookie eyes, so it looks like a beak.
And that is it! Now you have absolutely adorable DIY owl cupcakes. My kids absolutely love helping me in the kitchen, and this is the perfect treat to make with them.
What’s your favorite thing to make with your kids?
