Santa Hat Cupcakes

Here is another fun Christmas Cupcake decorating idea!  These Santa Hat Cupcakes really easy to pull off, even with minimal piping skills making them a great option for just about anyone!  These Santa Hat Cupcakes are perfect for a Christmas party desserts table.  Your family will love this idea!

Santa Hat Cupcakes

Ingredients:

12 cupcakes, any flavour
red frosting
mini marshmallows, cut in half
Wilton decorating tip #32 (optional but that is what I used) – you really only need a regular tip as you’re just ‘piling’ the frosting to make a hat.
disposable frosting bag
Directions:

So easy and so cute, these cupcakes only take a few minutes too. Pre-cut your mini marshmallows in half so you don’t have to keep going back and cutting more. I didn’t count them but you’ll need a lot. 😉

attach your tip and fill your decorating bag with red frosting.

Make a circle base of frosting on your cupcake (see photo).

Next, add the mini halved marshmallows around the ring (see photo).

Then fill in the circle with frosting and go a round and a round making the Santa hat. Top with a mini halved marshmallow as the ball on top of the hat (see finished photos).

Set the cupcakes in the fridge to set up a few minutes before serving.
