Get Baking this Easter and make your own Cute decorated Cupcakes!
We used a simple Vanilla Cupcake Recipe and Decorated with Whipped Cream.
Easter Bunny Cupcakes
When Cupcakes have cooled, cut a circle out of the centre of the Cupcake, then fill with whipped cream. Cut Cake Circle in half, place into cream as Bunny Ears.
Easter Nest Cupcakes
Cut circle out of the centre and fill with whipped cream. Add Spun Sugar Nest and top with Chocolate Speckled eggs.
To make Spun Sugar Nests
Place 1 Cup of sugar, 1/2 cup water into a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Stir occasionally until sugar is dissolved. Raise heat to high, and bring mixture to a boil. Continue cooking until amber in color. Remove from heat, and briefly plunge the saucepan into ice water to stop the cooking. Let stand to thicken slightly, about 1 minute. Use immediately.
Spray the back of a mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Dip a fork into the sugar and drizzle around each muffin cup in a circular motion. Let harden completely. Nests should easily come off cups.
Enjoy! xo Amy
