Cookie Monster CupCakes!



So last week the baking bug bite and I decided to make these bad boys! :)
Heres the recepie I used-

Ingredients:
Cupcake mix (makes 6 medium cupcakes)
50g Self raising flour
50g Caster sugar (superfine)
50g Butter or margarine
1 Egg
Butter Frosting:
250g unsalted butter
300g icing sugar
Sprinkle of vanilla
Milk – no more than 4 tablespoons
Blue food colouring
Extra's:
Cookies (any brand)
White Chocolate Buttons
Choc Chips.

Cupcake Sponge Recipe:
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (Electric oven | Electric fan oven 160°C | Gas Mark 4) and place paper cases into a muffin tin
  2. Using an electric whisk, food processor or wooden spoon, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy
  3. Add in the egg, beating it well
  4. Fold in the flour
  5. Bake in the oven for 10 – 20 minutes. After 10 minutes, check to see if the cupcakes are ready by inserting a cocktail stick into one of the cupcakes. If it comes out dry then the cupcakes are done. If not, pop the cakes back in the oven for a few more minutes. Lift the cupcakes out of the muffin tin and leave to cool on a wire rack.
Butter Frosting Recipe:
  1. Mix the unsalted butter, icing sugar and vanilla
  2. Add the tablespoons of milk, one tablespoon at a time and stir in well
  3. Whisk for 10 minutes
  4. Take out  4-5 tablespoons of the mixture and keep in a separate bowl
  5. Add the blue food colouring to the remaining mixture. Stir well.
  6. Add the cookies by halving and wedging carefully onto frosting.
  7. Stick white chocolate buttons on top
  8. Add choc chips to buttons for eyes.
