Swap a Recipe Saturday! Lawn Mower Cupcakes


Want Some Mower?

These sweet lawn mower cupcakes are a cut-above choice for Father's Day. I found these adorable cupcakes on familyfun.com.

Ingredients:

Chocolate-frosted cupcakes
Coconut, flaked
Green food coloring
Hershey's Nuggets
M&M's
Frosting
Black licorice laces

Instructions:

For each cupcake, mix a handful of flaked coconut with a few drops of green food coloring. Press a chocolate-frosted cupcake into the coconut to cover.

The mower is made with a dark chocolate Hershey's Nuggets body, brown M&M's wheels, and a red M&M's engine, held in place with dabs of frosting.

Shape the handle from a piece of black licorice lace, then insert the ends into the cupcake.
