I was reading the Sunday Magazine of my Newspaper when I saw these adorable Easter Cupcakes. So I knew I had to try to make a knockoff of them with the baking supplies I had on hand for Easter. These are the cute little cupcakes that came about. I made my own lemony buttercream frosting and that gave the cupcakes a real burst of flavor.
Ingredients:
1 box yellow cake mix
Jelly beans
Peeps (chicks and bunnies)
My lemony buttercream frosting recipe (or store bought vanilla frosting)
Baker's coconut
Green food coloring
Directions:


Frost cupcakes. Dip frosted cupcake into dyed coconut. Place a half of a toothpick into peep and poke other end of toothpick into cupcake. Finish off with jelly beans. Enjoy. Makes 14-16 cupcakes.
Lemony Buttercream Frosting:
2 cups confectioners sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
2 Tbs fresh lemon juice
Cream butter, add sugar and lemon juice. Blend until creamy.
