Easter Egg Basket Cupcakes

Easter Egg Basket Cupcakes

 

Spring is here! And that means Easter is right around the corner. Easter has always been a favorite of mine. The excitement of new Easter dresses, the resurrection of Christ, and lots and lots of candy!

Ok… what holiday doesn’t come with lots of candy?

My second favorite Easter candies, besides Peeps, are Cadbury Eggs. And they have these cute little Cadbury mini-eggs that are just as tasty!

Topping these Easter egg basket cupcakes with the Cadbury mini-eggs were just the right thing to do! Much tastier than jelly beans. And? These only took like 10 minutes to assemble!

What You’ll Need:

  • frosted cupcakes
  • coconut flakes (sweetened or unsweetened… up to you)
  • green food dye (or a natural alternative)
  • red licorice straw
  • Cadbury mini-eggs or jelly beans

What You Do:

6. Using a wooden dowel or another round tool, poke a hole into either side of the cupcake. This will serve as a pilot hole for the licorice.
