  • 6 Starburst Unwrapped candies cut in half diagonally
  • 24 yellow or green Reese's Pieces Candy or M&Ms

  2. Pipe frosting over cupcakes in a circular direction working from the center of the cupcake towards the outside.

  3. Invert cupcakes and press into the black jimmies.

  4. Position a half Starburst Unwrapped candy as the cat’s nose. Press one yellow candy “eye” to each side of the “nose.”

  5. Roll the fondant flat and cut 24 triangles. Press fondant triangles into the top side of each cupcake as the cat’s ears.

  6. Using the remaining fondant, roll into long strands and cut into 6 whiskers for each cupcake.

  7. With a toothpick, press the end of the whiskers beside the “nose.”
