Here’s a sweet treat for St. Patrick’s Day or any time… Lollipop Cupcakes!
Chocolate Cake Mix and Frosting, spearmint gum, green licorice, tootsie pops, oreos and green cupcake liners ($1 bin at Michael’s)
Make the cupcakes and frost them.
Grind/smoosh the oreos into crumbs and dip the cupcakes into them (you’re going for a “dirt” look)
Cut a piece of licorice the length of the tootsie pop stick
To make the leaves, cut a piece of gum in half with kitchen scissors and then round them off. Assemble the lollipop flowers and leaves into the frosting “dirt.”
Easy Fun!
