Ingredients

  • 12 vanilla or chocolate cupcakes, I bought mine at my local grocery store bakery. You can use a cake mix or from scratch too
  • 1-2 cups store-bought vanilla frosting, I like the fluffy kind.
  • 12 wrapped Rolo candies
  • Red and green M&Ms (regular or mini)
  • Clear sprinkling sugar

Instructions

  1. Frost each cupcake with vanilla frosting. Invert each cupcake and dip the frosting gently into a shallow bowl with sprinkling sugar to coat the frosting. Gently press the M&Ms into the frosting to create an ornament pattern. Add a small amount of frosting to the bottom of the Rolo candies and press them into the edge of each cupcake to create the ornament "top".  Enjoy!
