Ingredients
- 12 white cupcakes
- 1 can white frosting
- 1 bag candy your choice
- 1/2 cup shredded coconut
- Gel food coloring your choice
Instructions
- Bake a dozen cupcakes and allow to cool completely. (We used a box cake mix to save time). Remove cupcakes from pan, but leave cupcakes in their in paper liners.
- Carefully cut a hole in the center of the cupcake, leaving about 1/2" of cupcake on all sides and at the bottom. Remove this cylinder-shaped piece of cake and set aside. (Don't toss them!)
- Fill your cupcakes with candy. We used M&Ms but you could use anything small that would fit into your cupcake.
- Remember the pieces of cake you cut out of the middle? Cut those in half, keeping the top half. (You can toss the bottom half now).
- Use the top piece of cupcake, your "stopper" piece, to cover the candy-filled hole. Frost the top of your cupcake.
- We coated our piñata cupcakes in shredded coconut to resemble the fluttering tissue paper that's used to make the real thing.
Notes
- *Nutritional facts include M&M's for the candy inside the cupcake.
