This little piggy went to school…
It’s no secret that we love sweets around here, especially cupcakes! McCanless and I whip up a batch of cupcakes or muffins almost weekly! (To give away, of course.) The cupcakes we made last night were worthy of a post.
I found a website tutorial on how to make cute piglet cupcakes with strawberry icing and big, pink marshmallows. Those would have been super cute IF I had strawberries and IF I had big, pink marshmallows. Which we did not, so we improvised with what we did have: Halloween M&M’s, food coloring and fruit roll-ups. McCanless actually came up with the idea for the ears. I thought they turned out pretty cute! (Even cuter than the fancy marshmallow cupcakes online!) AND McCanless did them all by herself. Mostly.
FYI Ms. Susie, McCanless’ teacher, loves pigs and McCanless’ classroom is filled with piggy paraphernalia. Hence, the piggy cupcakes for her class.
A little practice on the cutting board before she began the real deal…
