Ingredients
Method
- Take a plain cupcake. I think maybe chocolate would be better as a finished product, but yellow cake works too.
- With a star tip (I used #26), make a mound of chocolate buttercream frosting in the center.
- With the same tip, draw a line from the center mound to the edge. Repeat until you have covered the cake.
- Repeat on top of the first layer of lines on about one-third of the cake to create a "brow".
- Put a regular sized brown M&M on top of the center mound as the nose.
- Put two red mini M&Ms on their sides within the brow as the eyes.
- Cut a piece off of the red gumdrop. (If you are using a regular sized gumdrop instead of a large one, cut it in half.)
- Sprinkle a board with sugar. Roll the piece you've just cut around in the sugar until it's well coated, then roll it out with a rolling pin.
- Shape it into a tongue as you need to. Place the tongue under the nose mound.
- With a plain tip (I used #6), make teeth with white frosting.

Notes
You will need piping bags with a #26 star tip and a #6 plain tip, and a rolling pin.
