With all of the holiday parties coming up, I am always looking for fun but easy Christmas themed desserts to bring.  I also love that my kids enjoy making fun stuff like this. These Santa cupcakes are perfect to bring to your child's school or any holiday event you are attending this season.

INGREDIENTS

• 12 cupcakes

• mini marshmallows
• red sprinkles
• red M&M's
• shredded coconut

DIRECTIONS

 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Line a 12 cup cupcake pan with liners.

Prepare the cake mix according to directions. Pour into the cupcake pan.

Bake for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

Let cool.

You can use this Betty Crocker Cupcake Frosting for easy piping or regular white frosting. 

Pipe the white frosting onto the cupcakes.

Place 5 mini marshmallows in a row on the cupcake to create the brim of the Santa hat.

Sprinkle the red sprinkles above the mini marshmallows to create the Santa hat. Place a mini marshmallow on top.

Place 2 mini chocolate chips under the brim of the hat for eyes and a red M&M for a nose.
