Wishing You a Woolly Woolly Happy Easter!

Gearing up for Easter I'm sure you're all thinking about bunnies, chicks, pastel colored eggs, and the best darn Easter basket you can find. While bunnies and chicks are cute, my favorite Easter animal is a lamb. Well, more accurately a woolly (don't ask, that's just what they are called in my house). So for Easter this year, how about some woolly cupcakes?! Don't worry, they are not as fuzzy as they sound.

Ours are super easy to make and only require a few extra things that you may even have laying around the house. You can start with any flavored cupcake you want and some white frosting. While your cupcakes are baking, we'll start on the faces.

Woolly faces made from
mini Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
All you'll need are mini-Reese's peanut butter cups and some candy eyes from Wilton. I used a tiny dab of frosting to adhere the eyes to the top of each peanut butter cup. They may look a little funny right now, but I promise it's cute in the end!

After your cupcakes have cooled and you've frosted them, we can start putting our woollies together! Place the head in the lower half of your cupcake and add mini marshmallows in a circle around it until you reach the edge of the cupcake.

...et voila! You have some festive (and cute!) Easter cupcakes.

Fluffy and "sheared" woollies!
