My kids loved these cute cupcakes decorated as little Santas for Christmas. They are really easy to decorate and you can get your kids to help you.

Ingredients

  • 12 unfrosteds cupcakes , cooled
  • 1.5 cups vanilla frosting
  • 0.5 cups red sprinkles
  • 1 , 6 ounce
  • 24 minis chocolate chips
  • 12 reds candy-coated chocolate pieces , such as M&M's®
  • 0.5 cups coconut flakes

Instructions

  1. 1

    Frost each cupcake with a thin layer of vanilla frosting. Pour red sprinkles into a small bowl and dip the lower third of each frosted cupcake into the sugar to make Santa's hat. Create a white rim for the hat by placing about 6 white chocolate chips, flat-side up, at the edge of the red sugar section. Stick 1 white chocolate chip on the top as a pom-pom.

  2. 2

    Place 2 mini chocolate chips in Santa's face for the eyes and a red candy-coated chocolate piece for the nose. Sprinkle coconut flakes over the bottom third for the beard.
