Thanksgiving Turkey Cupcakes

Ingredients:

Chocolate cupcakes

Chocolate frosting (make your own, or use 2 containers pre-made)

Chocolate sprinkles

Candy corn

Large, round, white sprinkles or almond bark

Reserved frosting, melted chocolate, or black food coloring gel

Preparation:

1. Place the frosting in a large Ziploc bag or a decorator's bag. If using a Ziploc bag, cut off one 1/2" corner.

2. Spread a thin layer of chocolate frosting onto each cupcake. Cover the layer with chocolate sprinkles.

3. Add two dollops of chocolate frosting.

4. Place five candy corns, pointy side-down, into the "back" of each cupcake. Place one candy corn, pointy side out, on the top dollop for a beak.

5. Carefully place two round, white sprinkles (with tweezers if necessary) above the beak for eyeballs. These can also be dotted on with melted almond bark. Using a toothpick, dot irises on each eyeball with melted chocolate or black food coloring gel. You can also use reserved chocolate icing gently squeezed on from a Ziploc bag with a tiny hole cut into the corner.
