Santa Hat Cupcakes

These Santa Cupcakes are such a cute and festive idea for a Christmas cupcake. While definitely made to impress a crowd, these cupcakes are incredibly simple to make! Simply whip up a batch of your favorite flavor of cupcakes (can be home made or from the box) and some vanilla frosting. Decorate the cupcakes with “santa hats” in the form of fresh strawberries for a delightful holiday treat. https://www.myorganizedchaos.net/2016/12/santa-hat-cupcakes 

These cookie stacks look almost too cute to eat! If you’re looking to be extra festive this holiday season, this recipe is for you. Simply bake your favorite sugar cookie recipe (or just use the Pillsbury sugar cookie dough, we won’t judge), whip up some buttercream frosting (the green food coloring is a must here!!!) and assemble!
