Description
To help you prepare for Dr. Seuss Day, we wanted to share this adorable Green Eggs and Ham Dr. Seuss Cupcakes. Made with boxed cake mix and a few simple ingredients, make these cupcakes for kids on March 2.
Ingredients
Scale
- 10 to 12 Prepared Cupcakes (6 white and 4 to 6 Green cupcakes)
- 1 Can White Frosting
- 1 Can Green Frosting
- 2 cups (Roughly 4 to 6 cupcakes) Crumbled Green Cake
- Black Rope Licorice
Instructions
- Prepare vanilla cupcakes according to the package. Make sure a few of your cupcakes are green (use a few drops of green food coloring when mixing the batter.)
- Cook according to package directions and cool.
- Frost all the white cupcakes with the white frosting in a flat, smooth layer.
- Mix the crumbled green cake with a tablespoon or two of green frosting until it comes together so you can scoop it. (Note: When I made my white cupcakes, I tinted 4-6 with green coloring to get my green cake.)
- Use a small cookie scoop, a put a rounded scoop of green cake mixture on the center of each cupcake so it looks like a green egg yolk.
- Take a piece of licorice rope about the length to make a circle shape on top of a cupcake. Lay a piece on each cupcake in a circular shape around the edge, it will naturally curve and not be a perfect circle. This is what you want it to do, so just press it into the frosting so it lays down. It should look like the edge of an egg.
- Enjoy these fun treats for Dr. Seuss Day!
