Good Things Easter Style

How cute are these cupcakes? A friend of mine made these for her boys Easter party at school - she is the type that turns everything she touches into gold - she did tell me that all she did to make the "grass" was to add a Tbsp of milk to the coconut and then green food dye and stir it up. Add jelly beans and pipe cleaners and you are good to go. Cute and easy is right up my ally!


And aren't these darling! Clear icing bags, cheese puffs and green ribbon is all you need for these. We gave ones like these out at our Easter primary party after each kid did the "egg walk" (think cake walk) once their number was called they got one of these instead of a cake. Again - fun and easy and the kids LOVE them!

And remember these:
Just google ressurection eggs and you will get a few different ideas of how you want to fill your eggs to teach your little ones about the days leading up to Christs death and ressurection.

And if you need a GREAT spring cupcake recipe:

Cupcake:
1 White cake mix
4 Eggs
3/4 C Oil
3/4 C Milk
1 3oz pkg Strawberry jello
1 C chopped strawberries (I use frozen that are completely thawed)

Mix all and fill cupcake tins 3/4 full. Bake at 350 for 20 Min.

Frosting:
1 8oz pkg cream cheese (room temp)
4Tbs butter (room temp)
3-4 C powdered sugar
1/2 C chopped fresh strawberries

Cream the cream cheese and butter then add sugar and strawberries. My frosting is always more like a glaze so it works great as a cake as well.

Happy Eastering!
