Christmas Tree Cupcakes
- 2 1/2 cups vanilla frosting, divided
- 12 unfrosted cupcakes
- 2 drops green food coloring, or as needed
- 1/4 cup sprinkles, colored sugar, or candies
- 12 unfrosted cupcakes, cooled
- Spoon 1/2 cup vanilla frosting into a bowl. Spread a thin layer over the top of each cupcake with a knife. Refrigerate cupcakes for 30 minutes to make decorating easier.
- Combine remaining 2 cups of vanilla frosting and green food coloring in a bowl; stir until frosting is uniformly green. Add more green food coloring, 1 drop at a time, until your frosting is the color you like.
- Transfer frosting to a piping bag. Working perpendicular to the top of each cupcake, pipe the green frosting around the edge, working inwards in a circular motion to create a tree shape. Repeat with remaining cupcakes.
- Decorate Christmas trees with sprinkles, colored sugar, or candies as the "ornaments" on the trees.
