Cookie Monster Cupcakes

Who doesn't love the cookie monster? These cute little cupcakes are sure to be a hit with the kids and are fairly easy and entertaining to make! 

This recipe makes 24. 

Ingredients: 

Cupcakes:
  • 200g unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups self-raising flour, sifted
  • 1/2 cup milk

Icing:
  • 250g butter, cubed, at room temperature
  • 450g (3 cups) pure icing sugar, sifted
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) milk
  • 2 drops blue food dye

Decoration:
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1 packet of your favourite cookies
  • 48 white chcolote melts
  • 48 chocolate chips
  • 2 drops blue food dye

Method:

Cupcake Recipe:
1. Preheat oven to 160/180 degrees Celsius, fan forced oven. Line cupcake pan with paper cases.

2. Using an electric mixer, beat butter, vanilla and sugar until light and fluffy. 1 at a time, add eggs beating after each addition. Stir in half the flour. Stir in half the milk. Repeat with remaining flour and milk.

3. Evenly distribute the cupcake mixture among the pan,  bake for 10 - 12 minutes. 

4. Stand cakes in pans for 2 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Icing recipe:
1. Place butter in a large mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. 

2. Gradually add the icing sugar or beat until the mixture is pale and fluffy. Slowly add the milk and beat until smooth and well combined.

3. Finally, add the colouring to the mixture and stir well.

Decoration Recipe:
1. Frost each cupcake once cooled. 

2. Pour the coconut into a bag and add a few drops of colouring, shake the bag well. Tip the coconut into a bowl and dip each cupcake so that it is well coated.

3. To make the mouth, make a cut about halfway into the cupcake. Make a second above the first at a slight angle and remove the piece of cake. 

4. Cut each cookie in half and insert it into the mouth you just created. If your feeling a little more creative, why not crumble or break apart the cookies instead!

5. Now for the eyes, using the leftover icing as 'glue' attach one chocolate chip to each white chocolate melt.  

6. Almost there! To add the eyes, dip them in a little icing and then pop them on top of the cupcake.

7. Enjoy! :D
