Owl cupcakes


Owls seem to be a popular trend right now. I've seen them everywhere lately. Which I find very understandable, they are beautiful animals. They also represent wisdom and helpfulness, which is something that we could use more of all the time. When I found that owl cupcakes on Pinterest, I just had to try them. They were so cute! owl cupcakes


The items that are needed are the following: 
-chocolate cake mix
-whatever is called for with the cake mix (eggs, water, oil, etc.) 
-chocolate frosting
-cupcake liners
-cupcake pans
-Reese's pieces 
-measuring cups
-spoon
-bowl
-Oreos

1. Preheat oven at the temperature the box says. 

2. Put cake mix and others items called for on the box in a bowl.

3. Mix items together. 

4. Put mix into cupcake pan with liners 

5. Bake then put the cupcakes in freezer for 20 to 30 minutes.

6. Pull the cupcakes out of the freezer and frost them 

7. Take Oreos and split in half and placing the side with frosting onto the cupcake.

8. Then add two brown Reese's as eyes and an orange for the beak.

There you have it, Owl Cupcakes. A few things that I did differently was I didn't use frosting to stick the Reese's onto the Oreo's, I simply just stuck them on and it worked perfect. I also didn't put the Oreo's into the microwave but i think it would have smart to.  I also skipped using toothpicks for ears but it could have made them look cuter. I also learned that you get about 14 sets of eyes from each pack of Oreos, which isn't something any other pin posted.
I hope you enjoy this post!
