Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare the cake mix according to directions. Pour into the cupcake pan.
Bake for 15 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Let cool.
Pipe the white frosting onto the cupcakes.
Place 5 mini marshmallows in a row on the cupcake to create the brim of the Santa hat.
Sprinkle the red sprinkles above the mini marshmallows to create the Santa hat. Place a mini marshmallow on top.
Place 2 mini chocolate chips under the brim of the hat for eyes and a red M&M for a nose. Ho Ho Ho! Merry Christmas!
Notes
Use mini marshmallows to create the brim and pom-pom of Santa's hat; their size and shape are perfect for this design.
Gently press mini chocolate chips into the frosting to form Santa's eyes and a red M&M for the nose before the frosting sets.
For a festive touch, sprinkle shredded coconut around the base of the hat to resemble snow.
