Christmas Tree Cupcakes
Ingredients
Cupcake
White frosting
Shredded coconut
Green frosting
White chocolate & yellow sprinkles
Various sprinkles (to decorate tree)
Wilton 1M piping tip
2 piping/pastry bags
Offset spatula/spreader
Method
For the star on top, I melted white chocolate, put it in a piping bag, and piped the shape of a star onto parchment paper on a cookie sheet. I then immediately covered it in yellow sprinkles. I put the stars in the freezer for 20 minutes to set up before place them on top of the piped tree. Make a few extra in case they break and for variety. You could also do this to create ornament shapes (dots with colored sprinkles).
Using your offset spatula, spread a small amount of white frosting on top of the cupcake, completely covering it.
Using the palm of your hand, pat the frosting with coconut flakes, making a flat surface.
Using the green frosting in a piping bag with the Wilton 1M tip, pipe green frosting in the shape of a tree onto the cupcake.
Use any kind of sprinkles to decorate your tree. I found that the larger round dots made better ornament shapes. Really, just use your imagination… the decorating is the fun part!
