No matter what winter will do, this cupcake recipe is sure to add smiles all around your house.  Thanks to reader Michele we can all have a very groundhog-filled weekend.  Enjoy! 

What You Need:

  • Baked cupcakes
  • Almond Joy candy
  • White frosting
  • White jelly beans
  • Black decorators’ gel
  • Watermelon slice candy
  • Brown M&M’s Minis
  • Chocolate cookie 

What’s Next: 

Step 1:
Remove a piece of cake the width of an Almond Joy candy from the center of a baked cupcake. Set the candy upright in the hole, then spread a layer of white frosting on the cupcake.   
 
Step 2:
For the groundhog’s eyes, trim the ends from a white jelly bean, stick them in place with frosting, then dot them with black decorators’ gel. Add a tiny triangle cut from a watermelon slice candy for a nose, brown M&M’s Minis for ears and cheeks, and a tiny rectangular piece of white jelly bean for teeth. Sprinkle chocolate cookie crumbs around the partially emerged groundhog, and he’s ready to greet his fans.

Eat well & Laugh often!
